Respuesta :

From the given photograph in the problem above, the cost of each macaras is $14, each set of clave cost $5. Lastly, each djembe drum costs $16. If we let x be the number of djembe drum sold, our equation would be,
                         326 = 12(14) + 6(5) + x(16)
Simplifying the right side of the equation,
                           326 = 198 + 16x
