Monday = X
Tuesday = X + 3 (Problem says three more hours than he worked on Monday)
Wednesday = 2x + 1
(Problem says he worked 1 hour more than two times the number of hours on monday)
This side of the equation would be -
X + (X +3) + (2X + 1)
That's monday plus tuesday plus wednesday.
Then you would set up the other side of the equation.
This would be the total number of hours so it would be equal to monday, tuesday and wednesday combined.
2 + (5x)
Two hours more than five times the amount of Monday (X)
Now we put this together to have an equation
X + (X + 3) + (2x+ 1) = 2 + 5x
Now we need to collect like terms
4x + 4 = 2 + 5x
I just simplified the left side of the equation
Now I will subtract 4x from the left side to get all the variables on one side
4 = 2 + x
Now I subtract 2 to get the numbers both on one side
2 = x
So, Colby worked 2 hours on Monday.
First group the coefficients together on their side of the equal sign.
-x + 3x = 2x.
Then, since it is a positive number, subtract it from that side and the other side.
On the other side, the x becomes -x.
Add the 6 from the other side to the 8 to make 14.
14 = -x
Divide both sides by -1, to get the answer.
x = -14
If you multiply 600 by 0.05 by 2 you will get $60.00 as your balance of your account.
Answer:
the y intercept at this point is 7

Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we have to work backwards. If you divide something by 9, and it equals 5, to figure out the number, we need to multiply by 9. 5*9= 45. If four was taken away, we have to add it to 45, which is 49. If a number *7 is 49, then we have to divide by 7 to get the answer. 49/7=7
