Answer:
b= 352/3
or b= 117.33
Step-by-step explanation:
262-3x+85=-5
-3x+(262+85)=-5
simplify the arithmetic
-3x+347=-5
Group all constants on the right side of the equation
-3x+347=-5
Subtract from both sides:
-3x+347-347=-5-347
Simplify the arithmetic:
-3x=-5-347
-3x=-352
isolate the x
-3x=-352
Divide both sides by -3
-3x/-3}=-352/-3}
Cancel out the negatives
3x/3}=-352/-3
Simplify the fraction
x= -352/-3
Cancel out the negatives
x=352/3
Writing the equation that governs this situation:
-3C - (2.5C/hr)x = -18C
Simplifying, -3 - 2.5x = -18, or 3 + 2.5x = 18
Combining like terms: 2.5x = 18-3 = 15
Then x = 15/2.5 = 6. The temp. will reach -18C after 6 hours.
Your answer is A. Jake paid $49,869 for the cabin
So you will have 78 $ but if he goes and donate he will probably have 0 left
