The equation is already set up for you. All you need to do is solve for x, the number of hours.
23 + 3x = 5x + 7 original equation
23 - 7 = 5x - 3x combine like terms by subtracting 7 and 3x from both sides
16 = 2x simplify
16/2 = x divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
8 = x solve for x
Therefore, the answer is 8 hrs.
I think the population of china is around 17%
The answer to this is D. 180 square inches.
The area formula for rectangles: b*h
The base is 5 tiles.
The height is 4 tiles.
4*5=20.
Since each tile is 9 square inches, 20*9=180.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
In standard form, the answer should be : 2y + x = 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
See attached image.
Think of this situation as a system of equations.
let y be the price of hotdogs
let x be the price of hamburgers
5y + 2x = 8
2y + 5x = 9.50
now use your solution method of choice
substitution, elimination, matrices, etc
