Respuesta :

The equation for the situation is [tex]5x+6(0.95)=11.95[/tex]

The solution to the equation is [tex]x=1.25[/tex]

First, you must set up the equation.

[tex]5x+6(0.95)=11.95[/tex]

Then, you must simplify the terms.

[tex]5x+5.7=11.95[/tex]

Next, subtract 5.7 on both sides.

[tex]5x=6.25[/tex]

Finally, divide 5 on both sides

[tex]x=1.25[/tex]
