Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x - 3x + 7

Plug in 2 every time you see an x within the equation: x = 2

f(2) = 2(2) - 3(2) + 7

f(2) = 4 - 6 + 7

f(2) = -2 + 7

f(2) = 5

Answer: The cost of each game is $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the equations for each friend:

Friend 1:

Pays $3 for the shoes, and plays 3 games, then if X is the cost of each game, Friend 1 pays a total of:

$3 + 3*X

Friend 2:

This friend buys a soda for $0.50, and he plays 4 games, remember that the cost of each game was X. then this friend pays:

$0.50 + 4*X

And we know that both friends pay the exact same amount, then we can write:

$3 + 3*X = $0.50 + 4*X

And solve this for X.

We need to isolate X, then we can move all the terms with X to the right, and all the terms without X to the left:

$3 - $0.50 = 4*X - 3*X

$2.50 = (4 - 3)*X = X

This means the cost of each game is $2.50

Answer:

x = 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by 4:

x + 120 + 2x = 720

3x = 600 . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 120

x = 200 . . . . . . . divide by 3

_____

<em>Check</em>

(200/4 +30) +(200/2) = 180

(50 +30) + 100 = 180

80 + 100 = 180 . . . . . true

_____ _____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If you like, you can simply work with the equation given.

(3/4)x + 30 = 180 . . . . collect terms

(3/4)x = 150 . . . . . . . . . subtract 30

x = 200 . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4/3
