Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the left side:

5x - 20 = 3x + 4

Move all terms containing  x  to the left side of the equation:

2x - 20 = 4

Move all terms not containing  x  to the right side of the equation:

2x = 24

Divide each term by  2  and simplify:

x = 12

Answer:

\boxed{\bold{x=12}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 20 to both sides

\bold{5x-20+20=3x+4+20}

Simplify

\bold{5x=3x+24}

Subtract 3x from both sides

\bold{5x-3x=3x+24-3x}

Simplify

\bold{2x=24}

Divide both sides by 2

\bold{\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{24}{2}}

Simplify

\bold{x=12}

Aleksandr [31]
Malik earned $243.

When he bought the tires, he spent $90 ($45x2), and he sold them for $130 ($65x2). So his profit was $40 ($130-$90).

He bought three rims for $225 ($85x3) and sold them all for $378 ($126x3). His profit was $153 ($378-$225).

The headlight covers cost him $25 in total ($5x5). He sold them all and got $75 ($15x5). The profit was $50 ($75-$25).

The total amount of money made was $243 ($40+$153+$50).

Olivia family drove to Disney land For spring break. Her mom and dad shared the driving duties for a total of 14 hours. her mom
Troyanec [42]

For this case we propose a system of equations:

x: Variable that represents the amount of hours that Olivia's mother drove

y: Variable that represents the amount of hours that Olivia's father drove

So, we have:

x + y = 14\\65x + 60y = 895

From the first equation we have:

x = 14-y

Substituting in the second equation:

65 (14-y) + 60y = 895\\910-65y + 60y = 895\\-5y = 895-910\\-5y = -15\\y = \frac {15} {5}\\y = 3

Thus, Olivia's father drove 3 hours.

x = 14-3 = 11

Olivia's mother drove 11 hours.

Answer:

(x, y) :( 11,3)
