You decide to order magnets instead of bumper stickers. Each magnet costs $3, and the shipping fee for your order is $5. The total cost of your order, including the shipping fee, is $455.

Create and solve an equation to determine how many magnets you should order. You can use y to represent the number of magnets.
Question 3 options:

3y + 5 = 450

y = 148

8y = 455

y = 57

5y + 3 = 455

y = 90

3y + 5 = 455

y = 150

Cost = 3 per magnet times y plus $5 shipping, so 3y + 5 = 455.
Solve: 3y = 450, so y = 150.
