The pumpkin weight is 190.4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to find the weight of the pumpkin

Let x be the weight of the pumpkin

We know the cost per pound = .45, the total cost 93.68 and the delivery fee =8

The total cost = the delivery fee plus the cost per pound * number of pounds

Substitute in what we know

93.68 = 8 + .45*w

Subtract 8 from each side

93.68-8 = 8-8 +.45w

85.68 = .45w

Divide each side by .45

85.68/.45 = .45w/.45

190.4 = w

The pumpkin weight is 190.4 pounds
