Q. Craig makes bottles of bubble bath and scented soap bars. He sells them at his local farmers' market. On Saturday, he sold b bottles of bubble bath and 25 soap bars. Craig sold 38 items in all.Which diagram models the story?Which equation models the story?Choices:(A) b+25=38(B) b−25=38
Combine bottle and soap sales: Craig sold b bottles of bubble bath and 25 soap bars, totaling 38 items sold. To find the equation that represents this situation, we add the number of bottles sold to the number of soap bars sold and set this equal to the total number of items sold.
Check equation with example: To check if this equation is correct, assume b is 13 (as an example). Plugging in b=13, we get 13+25=38, which is true. This confirms our equation is correct.
