Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

she bought a soft drink for $3 so subtract that from the overall cost which is $43.

$43.00 - $3.00 = $40.00

Then I just divided that by 8 because thats how many candy bars she bought

40 ÷ 8 = 5

So each candy bar was $5.00

Hope its right

Im extremly sorry if its wrong

Answer: 3 + 8x = 43

Each candy bar costs $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation using the information given:

We have to add the price of the soft drink (3) and; the product of the price of each candy bar (x) and the number of candy bars purchased (8).

That expression must be equal to the total amount of money spent.(43)

3 + 8x = 43

Solving for x:

8x = 43 -3

8x = 40

x =40/8

x =5

Each candy bar costs $5
