Mr. peters just purchased a total of eight shrubs and trees for his yard. the total bill was $260. the shrubs cost $25 each and the trees cost $110 in total. write an equation to determine the number of shrubs purchased.

25s +110(8 -s) = 260

Step-by-step explanation:

25s is the cost of s shrubs.

Using the given information, 8-s is the number of trees purchased, so their cost is 110(8 -s). The total cost is given as 260, so the equation can be written as ...

... 25s + 110(8 -s) = 260

The solution to this is that 7.294 shrubs were purchased, along with 0.706 trees.

Comment on the problem

We believe the correct problem statement is that a total of 7 items was purchased, so the equation is

... 25s +110(7 -s) = 260

The solution to this is that 6 shrubs were purchased (and 1 tree).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no. of shrubs

Cost of 1 shrub = $25

Cost of x shrub = $25x

Let y be the number of Trees

The trees cost $110 in total.

Cost of y trees = $110

No we are given that The total bill was $260

So,

Hence  an equation to determine the number of shrubs purchased. is
