The answer is x=4.
set the equations up: 8x-5=6x-3
Subtract 6x from one side and then the other side 2x-5=3
Add 5 from one side and then the other 2x=8
Divide 2 on each side which gets you x=4

Answer:
Yes and she would have $2 left over because all the food costs $91.
Step-by-step explanation:
We should set up an equation so that everything makes sense. A calculator would be wise for this problem, but I am going to lay it out anyhow.
We should convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions to not be confused. 3 1/2 becomes 7/2 or 3.5 and 2 1/3 becomes 7/3.
From your wording, we can assume that the money Mrs. Donnelly has is either greater than or equal to $93.
Thus, we have 12*(7/3) + 18*(7/3) is equal to or greater than 93 (this is an inequality).
The math shows that the food costed 91 and so she only has $2 left.
