Answer:
Carmen bought 5 pounds of coffee
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of buying coffee is $8.44 per pound. Let us assume she bought x pound of coffee, this means that she spent $8.44x on coffee.
She went to the coffee store with $80 gift card and left with $37.80, this means that after spending $8.44x from the initial $80, she had $37.80. To find the number of pounds she bought, we are to use the following equation:
80 - 8.44x = 37.80
8.44x = 80 - 37.80
8.44x = 42.2
x = 42.2/ 8.44 = 5
x = 5 pounds.

Answer:
x =
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x - 5 =
Multiply through by 8 ( the LCM of 4 and 8 ) to clear the fractions
6x - 40 = 3 ( add 40 to both sides )
6x = 43 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x =
by calculating the given information and the equation in table
1/3 x 3/4= 3/12 = 1/4
Answer is B.
