Isolate the variable by subtracting 8x from both sides to get -4x = -1. multiply both sides by -1 to get 4x = 1. divide both sides by 4 to get x = 1/4.
The first step was the combine the like terms; in this example he is subtracting the 3x on both sides of the =.
If you were to solve the equation it would look like this:
2x+6=3x-8
-3x -3x
-x+6=-8
-6 -6
-x=-14
/-1 /-1
x=14
Answer:
6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x----> the number of hours worked at the donut shop
y----> the number of hours worked at the school bookstore
we know that
x+y=20
x=20-y -----> equation A
10.25x+8.75y=196 -----> equation B
Substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y
10.25(20-y)+8.75y=196
205-10.25y+8.75y=196
10.25y-8.75y=205-196
1.5y=9
y=6 hours at the school bookstore
