Answer:  Equation:  5x = 62.50 - 12.50    or   x = \frac{62.50-12.50}{5}  

x is the cost of each shrub  x = $10

Step-by-step explanation:  Total bill = $62.50.

Subtract the cost of potting soil for $12.50 to find the cost of just the shrubs.   5x  equals that amount

5x = 62.50 - 12.50

5x = 50   divide both sides by 5  

5x/5 = 50/5

x = 10
