Sam ordered some books online for $5 each. He paid a total of $4 for shipping. The total cost of the purchase was $89. How many books did he buy? Part a is the equation and part b is the total

17

Step-by-step explanation:

if you subtract 4 from 89, which is the shipping cost. 89 - 4 = 85. Then divided 85 by 5 because that will show how much he paid for them in total, by how much a singular book is. Telling you how many books he bought. 85/5 = 17.

A.) 5b+4=89

B.) 17 books

Step-by-step explanation:

To find A.), we must create a linear equation. Let b be the number of books Sam ordered. We write 5b because each book is 5 dollars. Then we add 4 dollars to the equation to represent the shipping fee. Then we write "equals to 89",  because it says that is the total cost. So we get the equation 5b+$4=$89

To find B.), we must solve the equation. Isolate the variable, by subtracting 4 from both sides. We then get 5b=$85. Now we divide by 5 to get only the variable and to get rid of the coefficient. We get b=17. So Sam bought 17 books.
