John has $23.65 spend on a book and magazines. The book costs $5.95z the magazines cost $2.95 each.
A) write an equation that models the number of magazines that John can afford.
B) solve the equation
This is equation for this one because we know that 23.65 is the total money they have total and 5.95 cost for book and 2.95 dollar what each magazine. BUT we need to know how many magazines so it will show on answer B)
Answer for B) 23.65=5.65+2.95x 23.65-5.95=-5.95+2.95x 17.70=2.95x 17.70/2.95=2.95/2.95 6=x
So the answer is 6 magazine! We can buy only up to 6 magazines because it enough money to pay everything with book and magazine
