Question

2. On vacation, Katelyn wanted to have her hair braided in multiple braids to cover her head. The beautician charges a flat rate of $4, plus $0.75 per braid. She's saved $29 to get braids. How many braids can she get?​

Answer 1

Answer:

33 braids

Step-by-step explanation:

What you want to do is first put in the equation. You put in 0.75x + 4=29.

Then you subtract 4 from 29 and get 25. Then divide 25 by 0.75 and you get the answer 33.3333333333. Round it to the nearest whole number and you get the final answer of 33 braids.

Answer 2

29 = 4 + .75b
subtract 4
25 = .75b
divide .75
b = 33.3333333
b = 33 braids
