Do 12x-9 + 141 = 180 (add -9 and 4)
12x +132= 180 (Subtract 132 from 180)
12x =48 (Divide 48 by 12)
x=4
Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of money to be paid per month be represented by x. The information given in the question can then be formed into an equation as:
$40 + 12x = $460
From the equation, the amount that'll be paid monthly will be:
$40 + 12x = $460
12x = $460 - $40
12x = $420
x = $420/12
x = $35
The amount paid monthly is $35
Decimal : 0.53
