-3x - 6 = 5

A) add 6 to both sides to isolate the variable on one side

-3x - 6 = 5 becomes -3x = 11

Now you can easily solve this by dividing both sides by -3

x = \frac{-11}{3}

Dance club has a $20 start up fee and a $5 monthly fee <br><br> M= <br><br> B=<br><br> Y=
labwork [276]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 5x +20

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you want the total cost (y) of x months of membership at the dance club.

This will be the sum of the start-up fee (20) and the product of the monthly fee (5) and the number of months (x).

  y = 5x +20

Comparing this to the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line, we see ...

  y = mx + b

  m = 5

  b = 20

Solve the following equation for w: 7(w + 3) = 16 + 10(w − 4)
nadezda [96]

Answer:

w = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

7(w + 3) = 16 + 10(w − 4)

7w + 21 = 16 + 10w - 40

7w + 21 = 10w - 24

-3w = - 45

  w = 15

Stefanie bought a package of pencils for $1.75 and some erasers that cost $0.25 each. She paid a total of $4.25 for these items,
pentagon [3]

Firstly, we’d have to find the total price paid for erasers by subtracting the overall price from the amount she paid in pencils.

$4.25 - $1.75 = $2.50

From there, we can use the amount per eraser to find out how many erasers she bought. Since she spent $2.50 in erasers, we can multiply to find our missing number.

$0.25 x 10 = $2.50

Therefore, Stefanie bought 10 erasers.

Hope this helps! :)
