JJ joined a fresh food delivery service where he gets a box of fresh fruits and vegetables delivered at home. The service costs

$30 to join, and each box costs $10. Let E represent the food expense related to this service and let B represent the number of

boxes he purchased.

i) Give an equation for E.

ii) Solve the equation you obtained in i) for B.

i) E = 30 + 10B

ii) B = E/10 - 30

i) E = 30 + 10B

ii) B = E-30/10

i) E = 10B

ii) B = E - 10

i) E = 10B

ii) B = E/10

    i) E = 30 + 10B

    ii) B = E-30/10

    Step-by-step explanation:

    From the question, E equals the fruit expense.

    That is the sum total cost of entering the service, and the cost of each box bought and the number of boxes bought

    B represents the number of boxes bought.

    Theresfore:

    i - an equation for E would be:

    E = (Cost of joining the service - $30) + (cost of each box - 10) Multiply by (number of boxes bought - B)

    E = $30 + 10 * B

    E = 30 + 10B

    ii - let's make 'B' the subject formula from the equation of E.

    That is:

    E = 30 + 10B

    E - 30 = 10B

    Divide bought sides by 10 to make 'B' the subject.

    B = (E - 30) / 10

    B = E-30/10
