Answer:

$1.5b

Explanation:

If a bakery sells 5 bagels for $7.50, we are to find the equation that will represent the cost of b bagels. This can be gotten using the equality postulate as shown;

5 bagels = $7.50

b bagel = $c

Cross multiply

5*c = 7.50b

Divide both sides by 5

5c/5 = 7.50b/5

c = 1.5b

Hence the cost of b bagel c is $1.5b
