A customer went to a garden shop and bought some potting soil for $12.50 and 5 shrubs. The total bill was $62.50. Write and solve an equation to find the price of each shrub.

 Equation:      or    

x is the cost of each shrub  x = $10

Step-by-step explanation:  Total bill = $62.50.

Subtract the cost of potting soil for $12.50 to find the cost of just the shrubs.   5x  equals that amount

5x = 62.50 - 12.50

5x = 50   divide both sides by 5  

5x/5 = 50/5

x = 10

step-by-step explanation:

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
