Answer:

28.21 = 4x + 4.61

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x equals the bags of apples and he bought 4 of them, we would multiply x by 4 like this: 4x

$4.61 were already added to the total cost of $28.21

If we wanted to find out how much each bag cost, we subtract 4.61 from both sides

28.21 = 4x + 4.61

- 4.61.         - 4.61

23.6 = 4x

Then, divide both sides by 4

23.6/4 = 4x/4

x = 5.9

Each bag of apples cost $5.90
