Answer:

The most number of layers he can afford is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We automatically have a fee of 17 so we know we have 13 dollars remaining. Using this information, we know that one layer is 5 dollars which means we can get 2 layers which is equal to 10 dollars which turns our total fee to $27. Hope this helps!

first off you have the starting cost (C).
C=$17

each layer is $5, so that becomes 5x.

the equation will be $17+5x=30

hope this helped !! :)
