Julio is making lemonade to be sold at a fair. He bought 5 bags of lemons for $19.75

Question

. Complete the equation that models the cost, c
, of each bag of lemons.

Answer 1

To model the cost \( c \) of each bag of lemons, you can use the following equation:

\[ c = \frac{t}{n} \]

where:

• \( t \) is the total cost of the lemons,
• \( n \) is the number of bags.

In this case, Julio bought 5 bags for a total of $19.75. Plugging in these values:

\[ c = \frac{19.75}{5} \]

So, the equation that models the cost of each bag of lemons is:

\[ c = \frac{19.75}{5} \]
