We need to substituter the values for the variables. 2(8)(2)/(6), or 32/6, or 5.3333
Answer:
3x -2y = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard form is ...
ax +by = c
where the leading coefficient (a, or b if a=0) is positive and a, b, c are mutually prime.
Multiplying the equation by 2 gives ...
2y = 3x +5
We can subtract 2y+5 to get standard form:
3x -2y = -5
Jamie has earned $80 +75 +145 +250 +80 = $630 so far this week. He needs to earn an additional $875 -630 = $245 to pay his bills.
If Jamie only has one last task, he must earn $245 on that task to pay his bills this week.
