X = B.......x - 17 = A

x + x - 17 = 87
2x - 17 = 87
2x = 87 + 17
2x = 104
x = 104/2
x = 52........so state B has 52 electoral votes

x - 17 = A
52 - 17 = A
35 = A.....so state A has 35 electoral votes

Samantha sends her son, Barry, to a preschool center on certain days. The cost of preschool is $45 per day along with a fixed mo
Hatshy [7]

Answer: Option D

D. 880 = 45d + 70; 18 days

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the cost of preschool is $ 45 per day plus a monthly fee of $ 70.

We also know that a total of $ 880 was paid last month

To write an equation that represents this situation, let us call d the number of days that Barry attends school

So the cost was:

45d + 70 = 880

Now we solve the equation for the variable d

45d= 880-70

45d= 810

d= \frac{810}{45}

d= 18\ days

The answer is the option D
