Answer:
8 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Earning for each ticket is $0.25 and for each book is $2
If total earning for 4 tickets and x books is $17, then the equation is:
- 0.25*4 + 2x = 17
- 1 + 2x = 17
- 2x = 16
- x = 16/2
- x = 8
So Molly purchased 8 books

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!
The number beside the letter . for example 6x, 6 would be the variable
