Answer 1

Answer:

He can buy 3 bracelets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mr. Gonzales has only 42.50 to spend he wants to buy 29 t shirts including tax and some bracelets that cost 4.50 each including tax.

Now, to find the number of bracelets he can buy.

Let the number of bracelets he can buy be $x.$

Price of each bracelets = 4.50.

Total amount to spend = 42.50.

Number of t-shirts = 29.

Now, to get the number of bracelets we put an equation:

$29+4.50\times x=42.50\\\\29+4.50x=42.50$

Subtracting both sides by 29 we get:

$4.50x=42.50-29\\\\4.50x=13.5$

Dividing both sides by 4.50 we get:

$x=3.$

The number of bracelets = 3.

Therefore, he can buy 3 bracelets.
