For 9x+25=88, Deens wrote the situation "I bought some shirts at the store for $9 each and received a $25 discount. My total bill was $88. How many shirts did I buy?

total bill would be excluding the discount, so Deens has included the discount on the wrong side of the equation.

So: 9X = 88-25
9X=63
63/9=7
therefore Deens bought 7 shirts
