Kenny had a total of 140 minutes to read, do homework, and play video games he spent x minutes reading, he spent 2(x+5) minutes
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

He spent 52.5 minutes reading.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation from the word problem is 2(x+5)+25=140. Distribute 2 to the parentheses and get 2x+10+25=140. Combine like terms to get 2x+35=140. Subtract 35 from both sides and get 2x=105. Divide both sides by 2 and your final answer is x=52.5
