Raymond buys bottles of water at $2.10 each and a large pizza at $12.99. The total cost was $21.39. How many bottles of water b did he buy?

For people using Connexus (Unit 7 Lesson 3)

1.) 8

2.) -4

3.) -5a

4.) 7a - 11b

5.) 6x + 50

6.) 3

7.) 6

8.) 2.10b + 12.99 = 21.39

I hope this was helpful!

This is exactly analogous to the previous problem, only you have to supply the equation:

12.99 + 2.10b = 21.39

To determine the number of bottles of water that Raymond bought, we need to subtract the cost of the pizza from the total cost and then divide the remaining amount by the cost of each bottle of water.

Let's break down the problem step by step:

Step 1: Calculate the cost of the pizza
Given that the cost of the pizza is $12.99.

Step 2: Calculate the total cost of the bottles of water
Subtract the cost of the pizza from the total cost to find the total cost of the bottles of water:
Total Cost - Cost of Pizza = Cost of Bottles of Water
$21.39 - $12.99 = $8.40

Step 3: Determine the number of bottles of water
Divide the cost of the bottles of water by the cost of each bottle to find the number of bottles:
Cost of Bottles of Water / Cost per Bottle = Number of Bottles
$8.40 / $2.10 = 4

Therefore, Raymond bought 4 bottles of water.
