Answer 1

Answer:

$12.25x+3.99=77.49$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the cost of each shirt = $12.25

It is given that she bought total 'x' shirts, each of cost $12,25.

So, the cost of 'x' shirts is $12.25x$ dollars

Also, there is a shipping charge of $3.99

So, the total cost of 'x' shirts is $12.25x+3.99$

Since, the shirts cost her total $77.49.

We have the equation,

$12.25x+3.99=77.49$

Answer 2

77.49 - 3.99 = 12.25 * x

73.5 = 12.25x
(Divide both sides by 12.25)
6 = x
So, she bought six shirts.
