In winter, the price of apples suddenly went up by $0.75 per pound. Sam bought 3 pounds of apples at the new price for a total of $5.88.
Write an equation to determine the original price per pound (p).
Find the original price per pound.
$

The equation is;

3(x + 0.75) = 5.88

The original price is $1.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price per pound be $x

By going up, the new price will be;

(x + 0.75)

3 times this is the new price;

3(x + 0.75) = 5.88

3x + 2.25 = 5.88

3x = 3.63

x = 3.63/3

x = $1.21

51
