Answer:

He bought 17 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total money spent = $89

Cost of each book = $5

Shipping price = $4

We have to find, Total number of books

So if the number of books be represented by b, the equation will become:

Cost of one book * total number of books + shipping price = total money

Putting values we get:

5*b + 4 = $89

By simplifying:

5*b = 89 - 4

5*b = 85

Dividing both sides by 5 we get:

b = 17

So the total number of books bought is 17.

i hope it will help you!

Word problem-in a movie script time traveler wanted to save his wife who died the same year. The couple was the dam age. However
drek231 [11]

Represent Age of Time Traveler =========> X

Solve:

x = 3(x - 20 )


Step 1: Simplify Both sides of equation:

x = 3(x - 20 )

x = (3) (x) + (3) ( - 20 ) (Distribute ):

x = 3x + - 60

x = 3x - 60


Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides:

x - 3x = 3x - 60 - 3x

- 2x = - 60


Step 3: Divide both sides by -2:

- 2x / - 2 = - 60 / - 2

x = 30



Answer: Our Time Traveler is 30 years old.




Hope that helps : )

Answer:

x = 0

y = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in what y is equal to into the second equation

-3(x - 12) = 2x + 36

Distribute the -3

-3x + 36 = 2x + 36

      -36           -36

-3x = 2x

They cannot be equal so x = 0

Plug in 0 into the y equation

y = 0 - 12

y = -12
