To answer this problem, let p be the price of each scrub. The total bill (t) is the sum of the price of the potting soil (s) and of the 9 scrubs (n). This is depicted in the equation,
                                 $11.50 + 9p = $94.75
The value of p from the equation is 9.25. Thus, each scrub costs $9.25. The answer is letter C.

Let

p---------> the price of each scrub

s----------> the price of the potting soil

T--------> total bill

we know that

T=9p+s

in this problem

T=\$94.75\\ s=\$11.50\\p=?

<u>substitute the values in the formula above </u>

\$94.75=9p+\$11.50

solve for p

9p=94.75-11.50

9p=83.25

p=9.25

therefore

<u>the answer is the option C</u>

\$94.75=9p+\$11.50

p=9.25

4. Miguel is helping his mom paint his home. He finished 2 rooms in ⅓ of an hour. How many rooms can he paint in 1 hour?
lilavasa [31]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use a rule of three here.

2 rooms in 1/3 h

x rooms in 1 h

\frac{2}{x}=\frac{\frac{1}{3} }{1}

Solve for x;

x=\frac{2*1}{\frac{1}{3} }

Remember that when you divide by a fraction, you invert the fraction and multiply by the numerator.

1/3 inverted is 3/1 or 3

x=(2*1)*3

x=(2)*3\\x=6
