Know the Answer?

Sterling Marshall · Answer 1

the answer is D

Kiera Parrish · Answer 2

The answer is D) The same as the cost of each bag of cashews.

Because in the equation the 5 stands for the fruit salad, the 4x stands for 4 bottles of water, and the 2x stands for 2 bags of cashews.

The variable which represents a bottle of water or a bag of cashews is x. Because x needs to be same in the same equation we know that the prices are the same.
