X = math
y = history
x + y = 248
x + x - 68 = 248
2x = 316
x = 158
y = 90
There were 158 math textbooks sold and 90 history textbooks sold.

Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees so

45 + 3x = 180
Subtract 45 from both sides to remove the 45 on the left

3x = 135
Then divide both sides by 3
x = 45

Answer is X = 45

Mila [183]

Answer:

d) 87

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this lets set up the equation

$\frac{85+70+98+x}{4} =85\\\frac{253+x}{4} =85$

then we multiply 4 on both sides

253+x=340

and subtract 253 on both sides

x=87

to double check take the averages

(87+85+70+98)/4=85
