Joan bought a soft drink for 4 dollars and 9 candy bars. She spent
a total of 40 dollars. How much did each candy bar cost?

Respuesta :

  • Cost of soft drink =4$
  • Total spent=40$

Cost of 9candies=40-4=36$

Cost of one candy:-

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{36}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 4\$[/tex]

Answer:

Let c = the cost of each candy bar

4 + 9c = 40

subtract 4 from 40

9c = 36

divide 9 from 36

c = $4.00
