The coach has $400 to spend on the end of season party. She
purchases awards for $80 and decorations for $35. She will use the
remaining money to order pizza. If pizzas cost $12 each, what is the
most pizzas can she buy?
80+35+12x = 400 Subtract 80 and 35 from both sides to combine like terms 12x = 285 Divide both sides by 12 X = 23.75 She can buy 23 pizzas at $12 for $276 Plus $80 and $35 for grand total of $391
