Answer:

15 action figures

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob had $200 to start off with. He spent $75 on vehicles, so we are going to subtract $75 from $200

200 - 75 = 125

He had $125 left. From the money he has left, he wants to purchase more toys. Action figures are $8 each. We will need to find how many action figures he can buy with the rest of his money. To do that, we will divide $125 by $8

125/8 = 15.625

He can buy 15 action figures with his remaining money. He will have remaining change.

I think the equation is:

8x + 125 = 200

8 gets the variable, 200 is the total, and 125 will not get the variable.
