sylvie bought 13 bagels and a container of cream cheese. each bagel cost the same price.
the cream cheese cost $2.95. sylvie spent a total of $7.50.

a. write an algebraic equation to represent the situation. identify the variable.

b. what was the cost of each bagel? explain your thinking.

A. $7.50=$2.95-13x B. Answer would be $0.35, this is because you first subtract 2.95 from both sides, after that you get 4.55, you then divide the 4.55 by 13 which is the amount of bagels Sylvie bought. This leave you with the number 0.35, which is how much each bagel cost, 35 cents.
