So, givens: total lesson cost of $260, total lessons taken are 6, and the first lesson costs 1.5 (or 3/2) as much as the additional lessons.
First thing to do is to figure out how many additional lessons are in that, which are 5.
Then you can make a 1 variable equation with the information you have. I’m using x as my variable.
260= 3/2x + 5x
Combine like terms.
260 = 13/2x
Divide both sides by 13/2 (treat it as a fraction, and if your calculator cannot make fractions, then decimal might help for this. 13/2=6.5)
X=40
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
She has everything correct but one thing. In order to have her answer correct, she must put the 9 in front of the 7 because the bigger number needs to go in front.
Represent Age of Time Traveler =========> X
Solve:
x = 3(x - 20 )
Step 1: Simplify Both sides of equation:
x = 3(x - 20 )
x = (3) (x) + (3) ( - 20 ) (Distribute ):
x = 3x + - 60
x = 3x - 60
Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides:
x - 3x = 3x - 60 - 3x
- 2x = - 60
Step 3: Divide both sides by -2:
- 2x / - 2 = - 60 / - 2
x = 30
Answer: Our Time Traveler is 30 years old.
