Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation then isolating teh varible.
your answer = - 1/7
Answer: $320 - $7.50p
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the expression that shows the amount that the florist earns if p people use a competitor for delivery, and the company makes $320.00 before any payment is made to their competitors will be:
= $320 - $7.50p
where,
$320 = revenue made before any payment
$7.50 = amount paid for a customer choosing a competitor
p = number of customers
Answer: 1045 cm of red ribbon and 1045 cm of yellow ribbon
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let R represent the amount red ribbon and Y represent the amouont of yellow ribbon.
- bought the same lengths of red and yellow: R = Y
- after used 286 of red, yellow is 5 times the remaining red; 5(R - 836) = Y
Use substitution method to solve:
5(R - 836) = R
5R - 4180 = R <em>distributed 5 on the left side</em>
4R - 4180 = 0 <em>subtracted R from both sides</em>
4R = 4180 <em>added 4180 to both sides</em>
R = 1045 <em>divided both sides by 4</em>
34-5x+2(x-2)=15 1st get rid of () by distributing the 2.
34-5x+2x-4=15 Now collect like terms.
30-3x=15 Get -3x by itself by subtracting 30 in both sides.
-3x=-15 You want X by itself so divide by -3 on both sides.
x=5
Answer:
They are all multiplied by 6
