Susan had $30 before she bought 7 mugs. Afterwards, she only had $5.50 left. The scenario can be expressed by: 30 - 7k = 5.50 where k represents the price for 1 mug. What is the value of k? a) k = 24.50 b) k = -3.50 c) k = 5 d) k= 3.50

Answer choice D. k is equal to 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, we must get the k all by its self. To do that, let's eliminate the 30. To do this, we must subtract 30 from both sides.

30 - 7k = 5.5

-30          -30

Then we get...

-7k = -24.5

Now we must get rid of the -7 that is multiplied by k. to do this, let's divide both sides by -7.

-7k = -24.5

-7        -7

And we get...

k = 3.5

And therefore, k is equal to 3.5. I hope this helps, and I hope it's not wrong, but I do not think it is.
