Answer:
2a + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
-3a + 7 +5a
<em>subtract the negative 3 from the 5</em>
2a + 7
Amount of money saved by Jordon for the video game = (4/5) * 80
= 4 * 16 dollars
= 64 dollars
So
The amount of money that
Jordan needs to earn more for buying the video game = (80 - 64) dollars
= 16 dollars
Amount earned by Jordan per hour working at a pizza shop = $7.75
Let us assume the number of hours Jordan needs to work to save the rest of the money for the video game = x
Then
7.75x = 16
x = 16/7.75
= 2.06 hours
So it can be said that Jordan has to work 3 hours to save the rest of the money for the video game. If Jordan works 2 hours then he will be short of the required amount. If Jordan works for 3 hours he will have some excess amount in his hand after saving for the video game.
Answer:
x = m - z
Step-by-step explanation:
z = m - x add x to both sides
z + x = m - x + x
z + x = m subtract z from both sides
z - z + x = m - z
x = m - z
Answer:
x = 1 and y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let apples are represented by x
and let oranges are represented by y
You purchase 5 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of oranges for $9. This line in equation format can be written as:
5x + 2y = 9
Your friend purchases 5 pounds of apples and 6 pounds of oranges for $17.
This line in equation format can be written as:
5x + 6y = 17
Now we have two equations:
5x + 2y = 9 -> eq (i)
5x + 6y = 17 -> eq(ii)
We can solve these equations to find the value of x and y.
Subtracting eq(i) from eq(ii)
5x + 6y = 17
5x + 2y = 9
- - -
_________
0+4y= 8
=> 4y = 8
y= 8/4
y = 2
Now, putting value of y in eq (i)
5x + 2y = 9
5x +2(2) = 9
5x +4 = 9
5x = 9-4
5x = 5
x = 1
so, x = 1 and y = 2
