If x is the amount that Tanya paid for each item, then Tony's items would be x-2.25. So:
3x=4(x-2.25)
3x=4x-9
x=9
x-2.25=6.75
Tanya spent $9 on each item; Tony spent $6.75 on each of his items
Answer:
It is known that 1 pint equals 16 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
It is known that 1 pint equals 16 ounces. Then we use this data to transform a number of ounces into pints.
Suppose we have x ounces. We want to know how many pints are these x ounces. Then we perform the following operation

Where z pints is the amount equivalent to x ounces
Answer:
y=3 ; x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Just remember TIBO

We can have different variables to represent each brother (there can be different variations and ways to solve, but I'll do it my way).
Matt=m
Jeff=3m
Todd=m+25
Matt Jeff Todd
m+3m+(m+25)=275 3(50) 50+25
5m+25=275 =150 =75
5m=250
m=50
Matt spent $50, Jeff spent $150 and Todd spent $75
Check:
50+150+75
=$225
55 for service call
35 per hour
Total 160
55 + 35 (3)
55 + 105
160
He was there for 3 hours
