Answer:
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
180 + 8x = 160 + 6x
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
- Subtract 6x on both sides: 180 + 2x = 160
- Subtract 180 on both sides: 2x = -20
- Divide both sides by 2: x = -10
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
180 + 8(-10) = 160 + 6(-10)
180 - 80 = 160 - 60
100 = 100

Answer:
$11.76
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to find the amount of plywood for all birdhouses.
2 3/5 * 8 = 104/5 or 20.8 or 20 4/5
Now we can solve the cost for all the birdhouses by multiplying the total amount of plywood needed by the price per square foot.
20.8 * 0.56 = $11.648 or estimated $11.65
Remember, the question might be different, so don't submit anything yet. If the people who sell the plywood only sell in integer numbers (meaning you can't buy 4/5 of a square foot of wood but can only by amounts with no fractions), then Jenna must buy 21 square feet of plywood and will have a little bit of wood left over. Now solve just like before.
21 * 0.56 = $11.76
Therefore the answer is $11.76 if she can only buy an integer amount of plywood or estimated $11.65. I think the best answer is 11.76.
