x - price of one pair socks

The equation:

[tex]5(2x)+5\times12=125[/tex]

[tex]10x+60=125[/tex]       subtract 60 from both sides

[tex]10x=65[/tex]      divide both sides by 10

[tex]\boxed{x=6.5}[/tex]

Answer: The price of one pair of socks is $6.50.


5(2x) - five sisters · two pairs of socks

5 · 12 - five scraves

125 - total cost
