Step-by-step explanation:
Rational numbers
7/8, square root of 25
( 2a + 3 ) - ( 4a - 8 ) = 7
2a + 3 - 4a + 8 = 7
-2a + 11 = 7
-2a = -4
a = -4 / -2
a = 2
We have been given an equation
that represents umber of walls, w, that Joe can paint in t hours. We are asked to find the number of hours it will take Joe yo paint 7 walls.
To solve our given problem, we will substitute
in our given equation as:

Let us solve for t.





Therefore, it will take
hours Joe to paint 7 walls.
