Let x be the money you spent on meat.
$5 + $52 + x = $80
$5 + $52= $57
$57 + x = 80
Now all we have to do is subtract $57 from $80 to get the value of x.
x=23
You spent 23 dollars on meat.

First, set up the equation.
80-52-x=5

Now, solve it.
28-x=5
-x=-23
x=23

So, you spent $23 on meat.

HOPE THIS HELPS :)

Jan noticed at the store that a sweater costs $3.95 more than a shirt. she bought 3 shirts and 2  sweaters and the total costs (
grandymaker [24]
Lets say the price of a shirt is X, then the price of sweater is X + 3.95

Since a total cost is 71.65 for 3 shirts and 2 sweaters. 71.65 = (3*X) + 2*(X+3.95)

So, 71.65 = 3X + 2X + 7.9

71.65 - 7.9 = 5X

12.75 = X. Therefore, the price of a shirt is 12.75 dollars, and the price of a sweater is 16.7 dollars (12.75 + 3.95)
