Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
3(3 - 8x) - 1 = -6x - 28
Distribute
9 -24x -1 = -6x -28
Combine like terms
8 -24x = -6x -28
Add 24x to each side
8-24x+24x = -6x-28+24x
8 = 18x-28
Add 28 to each side
8+28 = 18x-28+28
36 = 18x
Divide each side by 18
36/18 = 18x/18
2 =x
Answer:
13

Answer:
AM = 900
CI = 500
I have to be honest, this is the most ridiculously worded question of this type that I have ever seen... ask you teacher, why it was so important to force you to solve it using only one variable?
Step-by-step explanation:
(AM) + (1400-AM) = 1400
2(AM) + 3(1400 - AM) = 3300
2AM + 4200 -3AM = 3300
-AM = -900
AM = 900
CI = 500
