Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(x−5)−5=23

(3)(x)+(3)(−5)+−5=23(Distribute)

3x+−15+−5=23

(3x)+(−15+−5)=23(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−20=23

3x−20=23

Step 2: Add 20 to both sides.

3x−20+20=23+20

3x=43

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

3x /3  =  43 /3

x= 43 /3

PLEASE HELP!! Dee bought 6 dolls and 2 toy trains for $55. At the same prices, Joy bought 4 dolls and 7 toy trains for $65. What
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The cost of 1 doll   =  $ 7.5

and The  Cost of 1 toy train =   $ 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of 1 doll  = $ x

The price of  1 toy train  = $ y

Now, according to the question:

6 x + 2 y  = $ 55

and  4 x   + 7 y = $ 65

Solving the given system of equation,

From (1), we get

x= \frac{55 - 2y}{6}

4 ({\frac{55 - 2y}{6}} )  + 7y = 65

or, solving for y , we get

110y - 4y + 21 y = 195

or, 17 y = 85

⇒ y= 85/17 = 5

This implies :  6 x + 2 (5)   =55

or, 6x = 55 - 10 = 45

or, x =  45/ 6 = 15/2

Hence, the cost of 1 doll  = x = $ 7.5

and the Cost of 1 toy train =  y = $ 5
