The answer to your problem is........... 60..... i think :)
5x-23=87
add 23 to both sides
5x=110
divide both sides by 5
x=22
To check your answer...
5(22)-23=87
110-23=87
87=87
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember, math is a language
when you see per think fractions
15.2 miles per hour = 15.2 miles / 1 hour
since this is a fraction, Units can cancel just like numbers
To cancel miles and be left with hours rearrange the fraction
1 hour / 15.2 miles
then multiply by 72 miles

the miles cancel and youre left with hours!
so youd write and solve 72 / 15.2
11,15,19,23
an = 11 + 4(n-1)
an = 11 + 4n - 4
an = 4n + 7
