Question

Pls pick one of the answers below

Answer 1

The answer to the far left/the Blue Answer.

Explanation:

The reason why is because if 1 magazine was the price of $5, that would mean that the total of the erasers AND the magazine equals 25 dollars, as said in the statement. This means that when subtracting 5 dollars from 25 dollars, there are 20 dollars left. This means that if there were 4 erasers, that means that 20 dollars divided 4 erasers equals 5 dollars. This means that each eraser costs 5 dollars, making the Blue Answer/Statement true.

Answer 2

5+4x=25

Explanation:

You already know you bought 1 $5 magazine so that is the constant. And the question asks how many erasers you bought to equal $25. So to write the equation you know it equals 25 and the 5 is constant, if each eraser is $4 then the x goes with the 4 making it, 5+4x=25
