Question

Diego has budgeted $35 from his summer job earnings to buy shorts and socks for soccer. He needs 5 pairs of socks and a pair of shorts. The socks cost different amounts in different stores. The shorts he wants cost $19.95.Write and solve an equation that says that Diego spent exactly $35 on the socks and shorts.

Answer 1

Answer:

3.01

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Variables

Let's say "socks" will be s

2. Set up an equation

19.95 + 5s = 35

3. Subtract 19.95 from both sides

5s = 15.05

4. Get the variable alone and solve for s

s = 3.01
