Question

daria bought a lemonade cup for $9 . each refill cost $2 . last month daria spent $31 on mug and refills . How many refills did she buy?

Answer 1

Daria bought 11 refills of lemonade last month

Explanation:

The equation is:

y = 2x + 9

The cup costs 9 dollars and is 2 dollars per refill

She spent 31 dollars so:

31 = 2x +9

Now we can solve!

2x + 9 = 31

Subtract 9 from both sides!

2x = 22

Divide both sides by 2!

x = 11

We know x is the amount of refills so,

Daria bought 11 refills of lemonade last month!
