First of all, lets get y on its own side of the equation.

This is slope intercept form, y=mx+b, where m is slope.
we can see that m=2, so the slope is 2 or

You need to use a system of equations with 2 variables
where x= # of paintbrushes bought
and y= # of paint units bought
the first equation would be
.95x+.99y=4.87
Usually there is more information given in these problems so that you can make the second equation. Did the problem say how many total items were bought or anything else because given this information you cannot make a second equation and therefore cannot solve for both variables. Also, the wording is unclear, did she spend 4.87 on just paintbrushes or both brushes and paint.
