Question

Please help, I don't know how to solve the problem.

Answer 1

The price of a bottle of water at the deli just went up $0.30. The average price of the new price and the old price is $1.13. Choose the equation that you would use to find the new price of a bottle of water. Let p = the new price of a bottle of water.

p + (p + 0.30)/2 = 1.13
p + (p - 0.30)/2 = 1.13
p + (p - 0.30) = 1.13
p + (p - 0.30) = 1.13/2

Answer 2

well p is the price of the bottle of water.

p+0.30 is the new price.

p is the original price.

\[\frac{ p+(p+0.3) }{ 2 } = $1.13\]

Answer 3

Thank you!

Answer 4

let's solve this

Answer 5

So further simplifying this we would get \[2p+0.3 = 2.26\]
