Isabella spends $4.87 on paintbrushes and paint. how many of each item does she buy? the paintbrushes cost $0.95 and the jar of paint cost $.099 each.

Isabella can buy together 5 paintbrushes ( p ) and jars of paint ( p ) : j + p = 5, She can`t buy 4 items ( because 4 * $0.99 = $3.96 < $4.87 ) and she also can`t buy 6 items ( 6 * $0.95 = $5.70 > $4.87 ). So: p = 5 - j. Another equation is: 0.95 * ( 5 - j ) + 0.99 j = 4.87, 4.75 - 0.95 j + 0.99 j = 4.87; 0.04 j = 0.12; j = 0.12 : 0.04; j = 3, p = 5 - 3 = 2. We can prove it: 0.95 * 2 + 0.99 * 3 = 1.90 + 2.97 = 4.87. Isabella buys 2 paintbrushes and 3 jars of paint.
