    5.8x + 3 = 17.50

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the price of the twin per yard is $ x,

    So, the price of 5.8 yards of twin = number of yards * price for each yard

    = 5.8x,

    Bus fair = $ 3,

    Thus, the total spending = 5.8x + 3,

    According to the question,

    Total spending = $ 17.50

    ⇒ 5.8x + 3 = 17.50

    Which is the required equation.
