part b
how much did each candy bar cost?

3 + 8x = 43

Each candy bar costs $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation using the information given:

We have to add the price of the soft drink (3) and; the product of the price of each candy bar (x) and the number of candy bars purchased (8).

That expression must be equal to the total amount of money spent.(43)

3 + 8x = 43

Solving for x:

8x = 43 -3

8x = 40

x =40/8

x =5

Each candy bar costs $5

costs the what? what is the cost of the pants?

step-by-step explanation:

if it is $10, then the price is 14.

take 40% of the cost, and then add the cost.

40% of 10 = 4

4+10 = 14.
