Question

5. Keisha makes $ 135 selling items at a concession stand. She sold an equal number of T-shirts and keychains. The T-shirt costs four times as much as the keychain. How much does Keisha make from T-shirt sales? (Lesson 2.6)

A $125 © $33 B $108 D $27 ​

Answer 1

$108

Explanation:

Let n be the cost of a keychain, then the cost of a T-Shirt would be 4n. We can use this to set up an equation...

4n+n=135

Combine like terms

5n=135

Divide both sides by 5

n=27

Now we need to find how much she made from selling T-Shirts...

4n=4(27)=$108
