Mrs. Gonzales has only $63.50 to spend at a clothing store. She wants to buy a shirt that costs $28, including tax, and some bracelets that cost $4.50 each, including tax. PART A: Choose an equation to determine x, the maximum number of bracelets Mrs. Gonzales could buy. plz help ill give 40 points

Mrs. Gonzales can buy a maximum of 7 bracelets.

Step-by-step explanation:

A shirt costs $28 total.

Bracelets cost $4.50 each total.

Mrs. Gonzales has $63.50 in all, assuming she wants to spend all of it.

Set the equation, let bracelets be denoted by the variable, x.

4.50x + 28 = 63.50

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, subtract 28 from both sides:

4.50x + 28 (-28) = 63.50 (-28)

4.50x = 63.50 - 28

4.50x = 35.50

Next, divide 4.50 from both sides of the equation:

(4.50x)/4.50 = (35.50)/4.50

x = 35.50/4.50

x = ~7.89

However, note that you cannot round up, as you are buying. You also cannot buy .89 of a bracelet, so round down.

x = 7

Mrs. Gonzales can buy a maximum of 7 bracelets.
