x = 4

First you combine like terms:

8 + 4x = 24

Then solve:

4x = 24 - 8

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

8 - 2x + 6x = 24

The first step is to simply both sides of the equation.

8+-2x+6x=24

(−2x+6x)+(8)=24

4x + 8 = 24

The second step is to subtract 8 from both sides.

4x + 8 -8 = 24 - 8

4x = 16

The third and final step is to divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 16/4

x = 4.

The equⁿ is $\sf 30 = \dfrac{5}{6}y$

To Find :-

The value of y .

Solution:-

Taking the given equⁿ :

$\bf \implies30=\dfrac{5}{6}y$

$\bf \implies 30\times 6=5y$

$\bf\implies y=\dfrac{\cancel{30}\times6}{\cancel5}$

$\underline{\boxed{\red{\bf{\longmapsto \qquad y \qquad = \qquad 36 \qquad}}}}$

$\boxed{\green{\bf\pink{\dag}\: Hence\:the\:value\:of\:y\:is\:36.}}$

At the high school band's annual spaghetti dinner, the members served 210 dinners and collected $935. The band leader did not de

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

935 = 6a + 3.5c (this is the amount that has been raised)

210 = a + c (this is this amount of the dinners being sold)

Step-by-step explanation:

so a = 210 - c

935 = (6 * (210 - c)) + 3.5c

6 * 210 is 1260, so:

935 = 1260 - 6c + 3.5c

2.5c = 1260 - 935

2.5c = 325

so c = 130

a = 210 - 130 = 80

We know that 80 adult dinners were sold.

We also know 130 child dinners were sold as well.
