Farell has a gift card with a 45 balance he bought some bags of chips that cost 2.50 each after his perchase his gift card balance was 32.50 write and solve the equation to find how how many bags of chips x he bought

He bought 5 bags of chips

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the number of bags of chips bought

The amount used on the balance is;

45-32.5 = 12.5

Let the number of chips bought be n

Since each chip cost 2.5 each;

The amount of chips bought will be 2.5 * n = 2.5n

This is same as 12.5

Thus;

2.5n = 12.5

n = 12.5/2.5

n = 5

the answer

b. they are parallel and will never intersect.
