Answer:

x= 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x- 5 = 1

first you have to move the constant or in this case the 5 to the other side to isolate x so to do that you have to ad 5 from both sides, that way itll cancel out from the left and add on the right

3x= 5

now, to isolate x, we have to divide by 3, that way you get

x= 5/3

IRISSAK [1]
Items bought in total:
4 brothers X two hot dogs and one bag of chips=
4X3=
12.

Hot dogs- x, chips- y.
4y + 8x= $18.20

Chips= $1.25 each so
4($1.25) + 8x= $18.20
5 + 8x= $18.20
8x= $18.20-5
8x= $13.20
x= $13.20/8 [13.20 divided by 8]
x= $1.65

This means that one hot dog= $1.65.

If you’re unsure what to write as the answer I’d suggest that you put all the working out down in your copy/notes.
