Answer: B 5n+24=39
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the number of scarves that Rebecca buys.
Rebecca buys some scarves that cost $5 each and 2 purses that cost $12 each. This means that he expression for the total cost of n scarves and 2 purses would be
(5 × n) + (2 × 12)
= 5n + 24
The cost of Rebecca's total purchase is $39. Therefore, the equation can be used to find the number of scarves that Rebecca buys is
5n + 24 = 39
