Answer:
Rose bought 14 packages of granola bars.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total bill = 1 bag of potatoes + x amount of packages of granola bars
Total bill = $74.25
1 bag of potatoes = $6.00
1 package of granola bar = 5.25
We set the equation to:
74.25 = 6.00 + 5.25x
Subtract 6.00 from both sides:
68.25 = 5.25x
Divide both sides by 5.25 to leave x by itself
68.25/5.25 = 5.25x/5.25
13 = x
This means Rose bought 13 packages of granola bars.
Let's recheck our work by inputting x = 13 into the equation:
74.25 = 6.00 + 5.25(13)
74.25 = 6.00 + 68.25
74.25 = 74.25
