What is 7x+5=5x+17

Mathematics
1 answer:
seropon [69]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have 7x+5=5x+17, you try to get the variables on one side and the constants on the other. Subtract 5x from the right and from the left: 2x+5=17. Next, subtract 5 from the left and from the right: 2x=12. The last step is to get rid of the coefficient of x and to do that divide it by the coefficient(in this case divide both sides by 2). After dividing 2x and 12 by 2 you get x=6.

I figured out part A each notebook is $2.75 and each pencil is $1.10 but I need some help on part B. I figured out that he can b
tangare [24]

Answer:

2 notebooks

Step-by-step explanation:

I understand you already figured out that it was 3 notebooks, but when I calculated it, I believe he could only buy 2...

Personally, I would show my work by first doing the calculation: 2.75[1 notebook price]+ (3[pens/pencils per notebook]*1.10[pen/pencil cost])= $9.075 per notebook and 3 pens

If you then showed that you multiplied 9.075 by 2... you would get $18.15 which is the closest you could get to his limit of $22 without going over

If we applied your answer of 3 notebooks, then the total would be $27.225 which goes over the money limit.

Hope I helped!
