Answer:
Here is how you do it step by step.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify each side, if needed.
Step 2: Use Add./Sub. Properties to move the variable term to one side and all other terms to the other side.
Step 3: Use Mult./Divide
Step 4: Check your answer.
I find this is the quickest and easiest way to approach linear equations.
Example 6: Solve for the variable.

This is an EXPONENT.
To do this all we need to do is multiply the base by itself how many times the power says.
(-6)² = (-6) × (-6) = 36
Recall that any negative number times another negative number is positive so that is why this would be positive.
So, (-6)² = 36

STEP 1:
BAGS OF FOUR
find number of bags needed to total 74 apples
= 74 ÷ 4 apples/bag
= 18.5 bags
*must round up to 19 bags because we cannot buy a partial bag
STEP 2:
BAGS OF FOUR
calculate price of 19 bags of 4 apples per bag
= 19 bags * $5/bag
= $95 for 19 bags of 4 apples/bag
STEP 3:
BAGS OF SIX
find number of bags needed to total 74 apples
= 74 ÷ 6 apples per bag
= 12.3333 bags needed
*must round up to 13 bags because we cannot buy a partial bag
STEP 4:
BAGS OF SIX
calculate price of 13 bags of 6 apples per bag
= 13 bags * $7 per bag
= $91 for 13 bags of 6 apples/bag
ANSWER: The smallest cost to buy 74 apples is $91.
Hope this helps! :)
