Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5x - 11 = 20.5
Add 11 to each side
3.5x - 11+11 = 20.5+11
3.5x = 31.5
Divide each side by 3.5x
3.5x/3.5 = 31.5/3.5
x =9

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
1) Sheila had 1 gallon of milk
2) she used 1/4 of a gallon of milk ------> 1-1/4-----> 3/4 gallon left
3) she used 1/6 of a gallon of milk------> 3/4-1/6---> (6*3-4*1)/24---> 14/24
14/24-----> 7/12 gallon
To answer the question above, I let x be the number of calendars sold. You may use any other letter as this is just for representation. The total income generated in selling calendars is calculated by multiplying the number of calendars with the price. That is,
total income = 5x
If we let total income be y, our equation is further simplified into,
y = 5x
