Mr Carrillo's family bought lunch from Culvers. They also bought some sodas from Quick Trip for $5.00. The meals cost $6.00 each. The total cost of the lunch and soda was $41.00. Let x represent the cost of the number of meals that Mr. Carrillo bought. Write the equation and solve for x.
-5+6x = 41, 4 meals
6x + 5 = 41, 6 meals
6x = 36 meals
5 + 6x = 41, 7 meals
A wood board 100 centimeters long is cut into two pieces. One piece is 26 centimeters longer than the other. Which equation models this scenario?
2x + 26 = 100
2x - 26 = 100

x - 26 = 100
Mallory bought pizza and soda for her End of Summer party. If she spent $12.57 on the sodas and $10.95 for each pizza, how many pizzas did she buy if she spent $89.22? Which equation models this scenario?
10.95x + 12.57 = 89.22
89.22x - 10.95 = 12.57
12.57x + 10.95 = 89.22
12.57 + 10.95 = 89.22
Peter and his best friend found some money buried in a field. They split the money evenly, each getting $26. Which equation models this scenario?

2x = 26
Dexter's Gym charges a one-time registration fee of $40 and $20 each month. The total fee after x months is $340. Which equation models this situation?
40x + 20 = 340
