X+6x=56. 7x=56. Divide each side by 7 to get x=8. So Edna has 48 marbles. Sam has 8 marbles. She has 40 more marbles. Hope this helps! ;)
Answer:
942.22
Step-by-step explanation:
0.9(x-20)=830
Distribute .9
.9x -18 =830
Add 18 to each side
.9x -18+18=830+18
.9x = 848
Divide each side by .9
.9x/.9 = 848/.9
x =942.22222222
To the nearest hundredth
942.22
x/4 = 3/2
x/2 = 3 (multiply both sides by 2)
x = 6 (multiply both sides by 2)
Therefore 6/4 = 3/2
Answer: 29/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: she wants to rent the car for 11 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of additional days that Pamela wants to rent the car for.
Customers can pay $40 to rent a compact car for the first day plus $6 for each additional day. This means that the total cost of using this special for x days would be
40 + 6(x - 1) = 40 + 6x - 6
= 34 + 6x
Also, they can rent the same car for $30 the first day and $7 for every additional day beyond that. This means that the total cost of using this special for x days would be
30 + 7(x - 1) = 30 + 7x - 7
= 23 + 7x
Since she found out that the two specials are equivalent for x days, then
34 + 6x = 23 + 7x
7x - 6x = 34 - 23
x = 11
