Can someone explain to me in words how to do this problem 3x+122=22x-11
1 answer:
When you have this type of problem, you need to combine the like-terms and isolate the variable.
3x + 122 = 22x - 11
Add 11 to both sides to get rid of it
3x + 122 + 11 = 22x - 11 + 11 (-11 + 11=0)
3x + 133 = 22x
Then you would bring the 3x to the other side, so subtract 3x from both sides
3x + 133 = 22x
-3x -3x
133 = 22x - 3x
133 = 19x
Then divide both sides by 19 to isolate x
133/19 = 19x/19
133/19 = 7, so x = 7
Hope this helps!!

Let the pizzas = x
Let the sodas = y
Equation
y = 3x + 2
<u>Part A</u>
y = 3*8 + 2
y = 24 + 2
y = 26
<u>Part B</u>
Sodas = 26* 1.25 = 32.50
Pizzas =9.50 * 3 = 28.50
Total for both = 32.50 + 28.50 = 61
