Question

A health coach spends $36 on elastic bands and meal kits for four clients. Each client receives an elastic band that costs $3 and a meal kit that costs $m. What was the total cost of two meal kits? a $6 b $12 c $18 d $36​

Answer 1

$3 + $m = the amount spent on one client since one client receives one band ($3) and one meal kit ($m)

Since there are four clients,

=> 4(3 + m) = 36

Isolating m,

3 + m = 9

m = 6
Therefore, the cost of a meal kit is $6

The cost of two meal kits 6 x 2 = $12

The answer is B
