5.5-3b = 2b-6.25
5.5+6.25 = 2b+3b
11.75 = 5b
11.75/5 = 5b/5
2.35 = b
Answer:
$3.00
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the markup
2.00 * 50%
2 * .5
1
Add this to the original price
2+1 =3
The store sells the cereal for $3.00
G= 40
5x8=40
40/8=5
All you have to do is inverse operations so instead of dividing you multiply your 5 and 8 to get 40 and then check your work.
If you just need the slope intercept form it is y=mx+b
