Question

If john buys 8 jackets at x dollars a piece and 2 movie tickets at $11 a piece, whats the most he can spend on each jackets if his total budget is $200

Answer 1

22.25

Explanation:

8x+ (11*2)=200

first, multiply 11 and 2 =22

that leaves 8x+22=200

so now let's subtract the 22 from both sides

8x=178 now divide the 8

x= 22.25 so that is the most the jackets could have cost
