Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the amount spent on popcorn be x and amount spent on drinks be y
If the total bill paid is $17.94, then x+y = $17.94
If she spend twice as much on popcorn as on drinks, then y = 2x
Substitute y = 2x into the original equation
x+y = $17.94
x + 2x = $17.94
3x = $17.94
x = $17.94/3
x = $5.98
Since y = 2x
y = 2($5.98)
y = $11.96
Therefore she spent $5.98 on popcorn and $11.96 on drinks
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
5 less than a number is equivalent to 1 more than three times the number
number = x
x - 5 = 3x + 1
now im going to get the numbers and variable on different sides
x - 5 + 5 = x
3x + 1 - 3x = 1
x + 3x = 4x
1 - 5 = -4
4x = -4
lastly im going to divide each side by 4
4x / 4 = x
-4 / 4 = -1
x = -1
