To manipulate the equation y=5x-11 so that it is written in terms of x, we can isolate x by adding 11 to both sides and then dividing both sides by 5.

Adding 11 to both sides:
y + 11 = 5x - 11 + 11
y + 11 = 5x

Dividing both sides by 5:
(y + 11)/5 = (5x)/5
(y + 11)/5 = x

Therefore, the equivalent equation to y=5x-11 in terms of x is x = (y + 11)/5.

Let x represent the number of pounds of peaches Charity can buy. The cost of the peaches is $1.30 per pound.

The equation to solve the problem can be set up as follows:

1.30x = 6.50

In this equation, 1.30 represents the cost per pound, x represents the number of pounds, and 6.50 represents the amount Charity can spend.

To find the value of x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 1.30:

1.30x/1.30 = 6.50/1.30

This simplifies to:

x = 5

Therefore, Charity can buy 5 pounds of peaches with $6.50.
