The correct equation to determine the amount of money you had in your piggy bank before buying the toy is:
p - 13.32 = 25.70
To find the amount of money in the piggy bank, we need to isolate p. Adding 13.32 to both sides of the equation gives us:
p = 25.70 + 13.32
p = 39.02
Therefore, there was $39.02 in the piggy bank before buying the toy.
You have p dollars in your piggy bank. You spent $13.32 to buy a toy, leaving you with $25.70. Which equation should be used to determine the amount of money you had in your piggy bank before buying the toy?
How much money was in the piggy bank? (1 point)
O p + 25.70 =
13.32; there was -$12.38 in the piggy bank.
O p + 13.32 = 25.70; there was $12.38 in the piggy bank.
O p - 25.70 - 13.32, there was $12.38 in the piggy bank.
O p - 13.32 - 25.70; there was $39.02 in the piggy bank.
