Cynthia bought 7 posters which cost $35 each. Shipping for each poster costs x dollars. She paid $49 altogether. How much was shipping for each poster.

No sensible answer

Step-by-step explanation:

This means that the poster cost was 7*35 or $245, and each poster's shipping is x dollars, so we get 245 + 7x dollars, and since she paid 49 altogether, if we set these equal, there is no sensible answer.

The shipping was 5 dollars for each poster!

Step-by-step explanation:

You must first multiply 7 by 35, and you would then get an answer of 245 dollars. Then you would have to divide 245 by the amount of money she payed altogether which was $49 so, 245 divided by 49 equals 5 dollars!
