Answer 2

Answer:

x-5=27 or 27=x-5 or x=27+5

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the total amount of money Penny has.

after she deducts 5 dollars to pay for her bunny she is left with 27

    therefore

x-5=27 (which is the same as representing it in any other way shown above)

if they ask for X, then solve your equation

x=27+5

x=$32
