You pay $35 each month for satellite TV, plus $4.50 for every movie you purchase. Write and solve an equation to find the number of movies purchased during a month with a total bill of $48.50

[tex]4.5x + 35 = 48.5 \\ 4.5x = 13.5 \\ x = 3[/tex]
So 3 movies were purchased

We know that $35 is for satellite TV, so we can subtract that from the total.

48.50 - 35 = 13.50

Now we divide what's left of the total by the cost of a movie.

13.50 ÷ 4.50 = 3

3 movies were purchased.

Hope I could help!
