first integer = x

second integer = x+2

third integer = x+4

8x=3(x+2+x+4)-4

(FIRST PERSON TO ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST!!!) A student earned $2500.75 at his summer job making $12.50 per hour. Let h represent

laiz [17]

Answer:

$12.50 \space\ h = 2500.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know from the question that the student earned $12.50 per hour.

Using this information, we can say that if the student worked for h hours, they would make a total of 12.50 × h dollars.

We also know that the total money they earned is $2500.75.

∴ Therefore, we can set up the following equation:

$\boxed {12.50 \times h = 2500.75}$

From here, if we want to, we can find the number of hours worked by simply making h the subject of the equation and evaluating:

h = $\frac{2500.75}{12.50}$

= 200.6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

2(x + -5) + x = x + (-6)

Step 2: Solve for x

[Distributive Property] Distribute 2: 2x - 10 + x = x - 6
[Addition] Combine like terms (x): 3x - 10 = x - 6
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract x on both sides: 2x - 10 = -6
[Addition Property of Equality] Add 10 on both sides: 2x = 4
[Division Property of Equality] Divide 2 on both sides: x = 2
