Jamie has saved $42 of her allowance money to buy books. If she buys 5 books at d dollars per book, she will have 42-5d of her allowance left. How much does she have left if the books cost $3.50 each?

Respuesta :

1.42-5(3.50)
2.42-17.50
3.$24.50 left
If d in the equation is the cost of each book and each book is $3.50 the equation will look like thisΒ 
42 - 5($3.50)Β 

42 - 17.50Β 

24.50

Once the equation is solved your left with the answer which is $24.50Β 

Hope this helps! :)
