Steps:
let “x” be number of hrs
let “y” be total cost
Abe:
50x + 75 = y
Plumbing Service:
65x=y
Since both equations are equal to y, you can set them equal to each other.
65x = 50x + 75
isolate for x:
65x - 50x = 75
15x = 75
x = 5
therefore it will take 5 hours for each to cost the same. you should call Abe for any task more than 5 hours because it will be cheaper and you should call the Plumbing Service for any task less than 5 hours because it will be cheaper.
The algebraic expression of the situation above is 4x - 100 = 400
<h3>How to form an algebraic expression?</h3>
Let
the amount of ice cream they serve in July = x + 100
the amount of ice cream they serve in June = x
They served twice as many customers in august as they did in June.
Therefore,
the amount of ice cream they serve in August = 2(x)
the amount of ice cream they serve in August = 2x
Therefore,
2x + x + x + 100 = 400
4x - 100 = 400
4x = 500
x = 500 / 4
x = 125
