Let x represent the cost of book B
Book A: $17.50
Book B: x
Sales tax: (A + B) x 6% = .06(17.50 + x) = 1.05 + .06x
book A + book B + sales tax = total cost
(17.50) + (x) + (1.05 + .06x) = 44.52 <em>plugged in all of the values</em>
18.55 + 1.06x = 44.52 <em>added like terms</em>
1.06x = 25.97 <em>subtracted 18.55 from both sides</em>
x = 24.50 divided 1.06 from both sides
Answer: $24.50
Answer:
First box: 2
Second box: 30
Third box: 42
Step-by-step explanation:
5 sixes means 5 · 6, which equals 30. An unknown amount of sixes equals 12, which is 2 because 2 · 6 = 12.
30 + 12 = 42
7 · 6 = 42, so 42 is the answer.

Answer:
C seems right
Step-by-step
seems more work then needs be but 7+5= 12 and she originally had 23. so the equation of adding the 7+5 would just be adding up the ones removed together then adding the -23 to the equation is how many Amy had to begin with. so it would be <u><em>23-7+5 </em></u>= 12. others dont seem right since when you add () to an equation that means your multiplying and you wouldn't be multiplying here and for D to be right it needs to be switched around or you'd end up with a - number and she wouldn't have a - number of blocks. just divide up a problem if need be and break it down to smaller parts to make it easier to deal with.
