A coupon subtracts $17.95 from the price of a pair of headphones. You pay $71.80 for the headphones after using the coupon. Write and solve an equation to find the original price p of the headphones.
p + 17.95 = 71.80 , p = $53.85
p - 17.95 = 71.80 , p = $89.75
p + 71.80 = 17.95 , p = $-53.85

Tyrell has saved $62 to buy a new phone. How many more dollars must Tyrell save if the cost of the phone is $89? Let d be the number of dollars Tyrell must still save?
62 + d = 89
62d = 89
d ÷ 89 = 62
d - 62 = 89
What is the correct equation for this scenario:
What is the price of one extension cord if Kanaan can buy a package of 6 for $7.26?

In 2010, a tree was 8 feet tall. In 2011 the tree was 14 feet tall. Which equation would be used to find how many feet the tree grew?
f + 8 = 14
f - 8 = 14
f/8 = 14
8f=14
Darshany bought three candy bars for a total of $18.00. How much did each candy bar cost? Write an equation to solve this problem. Use c as your variable.
18c=6
c + 6= 18
c +18 = 6
3c=18
