Question

Kenzie bought 12 belts for $54 write an equation that shows the relationship between the numbers of belt B and C the total cost for the belts

Answer 1

C = 4.50B

Explanation:

Finding the cost of a belt

• Total cost / Number of belts
• $54 / 12
• $4.50

Therefore, the relation between B, the number of belts, and C, the total cost, will be :

• C = 4.50B

Answer 2

$4.50B = C

Explanation:

Kenzie bought 12 belts for $54, which means that each belt costs $4.50.

If b=number of belts, c=the total cost, and x=the cost of one belt, the equation would be:

b(x)=c,

so:

12*$4.50=$54

OR

$4.50B=C

hope that helps! good luck!
