Please solve. Essie likes plants. She never misses a chance to go to the nursery section in Home Depot. Essie has a total of $65.50 to spend on her trips to the store over the next three days. On her second trip to the nursery she spent $15.50 dollars more than what she spent on the first trip to the store. On her third trip to the nursery she spent two times much as what she spent on her first trip to the nursery. How much did she spend on her first trip to the nursery? Create a linear equation to model a real-world situation and solve the equation to find the solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $ x = the amount spent on the first day

The amount spent on the second day = x + 15.50

The amount spent on the third say = 2*x = 2x

Total amount Essie spent on 3 days = $65.50

x + (x +15.50) + 2x = 65.50

x + x + 15.50 + 2x = 65.50

Add like terms

4x + 15.50 = 65.50

Subtract 15.50 from both sides

4x = 65.50 - 15.50

4x = 50

Divide both sides by 4

x = 50/4

x = $ 12.50

The amount spent on the first day = $ 12.50

The amount spent on the second day = 12.50 + 15.50 = $ 28

The amount spent on the third day= 12.50 * 2 = $ 25
