Hey there!
If the price per orange is $.26 and we want to know how many oranges he bought and we have our total, we can set o equal to how many oranges he got and set up an algebraic equation:
0.26o = 2.08
We multiply .26 by o because o is how many oranges he bought and that's what we're solving for- so we multiply by the unit price.
To isolate o, we divide both sides by .26 to get:
The answer is C- Jim bought 8 oranges.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The answer is x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
so you have -4x-2=-18
so we get rid of -2 by adding it to the other side so you'll end up having -4x=-16
you then divide that by -4 on both sides and get x=4 as your remaining answer
