You would just need to make an inequality from the description. You would make "x" the number. The answer would be "x-4>-1"
I think this is how you do it
25 a month x 12 months= 300
300+50= 350
56 weeks x 3 times a week= 168
350/168= 2.08 each visit
Take the augmented matrix,
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}2&1&-3&-20\\1&2&1&-3\\1&-1&5&19\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D2%261%26-3%26-20%5C%5C1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C1%26-1%265%2619%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Swap the row 1 and row 2:

Add -2(row 1) to row 2, and -1(row 1) to row 3:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&-3&4&22\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%26-3%26-5%26-14%5C%5C0%26-3%264%2622%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Add -1(row 2) to row 3:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&0&9&36\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%26-3%26-5%26-14%5C%5C0%260%269%2636%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Multiply through row 3 by 1/9:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&-5&-14\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%26-3%26-5%26-14%5C%5C0%260%261%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Add 5(row 3) to row 2:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&-3&0&6\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%26-3%260%266%5C%5C0%260%261%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Multiply through row 2 by -1/3:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&2&1&-3\\0&1&0&-2\\0&0&1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cc%7D1%262%261%26-3%5C%5C0%261%260%26-2%5C%5C0%260%261%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Add -2(row 2) and -1(row 3) to row 1:

So we have
.
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
1.)Reorder the terms:
7(8 + x) = 49
(8 * 7 + x * 7) = 49
(56 + 7x) = 49
2.)Solving
56 + 7x = 49
3.)Solving for variable 'x'.
4.)Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
5.)Add '-56' to each side of the equation.
56 + -56 + 7x = 49 + -56
6.)Combine like terms: 56 + -56 = 0
0 + 7x = 49 + -56
7x = 49 + -56
7.)Combine like terms: 49 + -56 = -7
7x = -7
8.)Divide each side by '7'.
x = -1
9.)Simplifying
x = -1
