The prize of a basketball glove is 8$more than half the price of spikes. The The love of cost $54. Solve the equation S\2+8=54 to find out how much that spikes cost

Respuesta :

S/2 + 8 = 54


To find out the cost of the spikes, we must isolate the variable.

first, subtract 8 from both sides.

S/2 +8 = 54
-8. -8

Now we have
S/2 = 46

now, to find out what s is on its own, we must multiply by the recipricle of S/2. if that doesn't make sense to you, just think of it as cancelling the division by multiplying by 2.

s/2 = 46
*2. *2

s = 92


The spikes cost $92.
