13, 6+7=13 thats my answer :D
Most times, it’s good to talk to your teacher for help. I think it would be a good idea to ask your parent, sibling or any adult for help. Sometimes you think harder than you should so relax and try reading the question again. I hope you figure this out! Good luck!
(5 Neighbors) x (($1.00 Box) + (? Plant) + ($3.00 Gloves)) = 42.50
5 x (1 + x + 3) = 42.50
Combine in parens.
5 x (4 + x) = 42.50
Distribute.
20 + 5x = 42.50
Subtract 20 from both sides.
5x = 22.50
Divide both sides by 5.
x = 4.50
Thats the cost of each plant.
Check.
5 x (1 + 4.50 + 3)
5 x 8.50 = 42.50
The perimeter will change by the same factor Answer
