Princess is driving to visit a friend in another state who lives 440 miles away. She is driving 55 miles per hour and have already driven 275 miles. Write and solve an equation to find how much longer in hours you must drive to reach your destination.
55h + 275 = 440; h=3
440h − 275 = 55; h=0.75
55h + 275 = 440; h=13
55h + 275h = 440; h=1.3
A customer went to a garden shop and bought some potting soil for $17.50 and 4 shrubs. The total bill was $53.50. Write and solve an equation to find the price of each shrub.
4p + 17.5p = $53.50;
p = $2.49
4(p + $17.50) = $53.50; p = $4.00
4p + $17.50 = $53.50;
p = $11.25
4p + $17.50 = $53.50;
p = $9.00

Jeanne needs to buy shirts to look good when she goes back to school in a couple of weeks. She has $55 to spend, and all the shirts are conveniently the same price at her favorite store. She purchased 5 shirts and left the store with $7.50. How much did each shirt cost?
5(x + 1.50) = 55
x = $12.50
5(x + 1.50) = 55
x = $9.50
7.5(x + 1) = 55
x =$12.50
7.5(x + 1) = 55
x =$9.50
