Carter bought a bear and paid for a football uniform. The total cost was $38.50. Write and solve an equation to find the cost, x, of buying a bear.

Equation:-  

Solution of x:-  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total Purchase = $38.50

Required

Determine the equation for finding the cost of a bear

From the question; we understand that the cost of 1 bear is represented with x

Solving further; by representing the cost of 1 football uniform with y

So;

Substitute x for 1 bear and y for 1 uniform to give us an equation

Solving for x (Subtract y from both sides)

The equation can't be solved further

tube or goog would be a great resource to with that question
