Answer:

24.75 = 3*4.50 + x*4.50

x= 2.5 pounds of Granny Smith apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Gala apples = 3 lbs

Granny apples = x lbs

They cost 4.50 a pound

Total cost = 24.75

Total cost = gala apples * cost per pound + granny apples * cost per pound

Substitute in what we know

24.75 = 3*4.50 + x*4.50

24.75 = 13.50 + 4.5x

Subtract 13.50 from each side

24.75-13.50 = 13.50-13.50 + 4.5x

11.25 = 4.5x

Divide by 4.50 on each side

11.25/4.5 = 4.5x/4.5

2.5 =x
