Answer:
6 bowls of ramen eaten by you & your friend
Step-by-step explanation:
The question appears pretty choppy for me. I'll answer what I think you're asking and update in the comments if needed.
Imagine that you and a friend go to a local ramen shop for dinner at this restaurant, each regular bowl of ramen is $7.25. Drinks are $1.50 each. How many regular bowls of ramen did you and your friend eat if you ordered 2 drinks each and your total was $49.50?
a. Write an equation to represent the situation using x to represent the # of bowls you and your friend ate.
4($1.50) + $7.25x = $49.50
6 + 7.25x = 49.50
subtract 6 from both sides
7.25x = 43.50
divide both sides by 7.25
x = 6
Checking the math:
4(1.5) + 6(7.25) = 6 + 43.50 = 49.50
4 drinks, 6 bowls of ramen for $49.50
