Answer:

\huge\boxed{x=7}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for x, our goal is to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by reversing the equation.

Let's apply the distributive property on the left side:

(3 \cdot x) + (3 \cdot -10) = -9\\\\3x-30=-9

Add 30 to both sides:

3x - 30 + 30 = -9 + 30\\\\3x = 21

Divide both sides by 3:

3x \div 3 = 21 \div 3\\\\x = 7

So x = 7.

Hope this helped!

8th grade teachers and students from M.I.T went on a field trip to an zoo. Tickets
alukav5142 [94]

As there are multiple answers going with trial and error seems good in this case.

A

5.00 + 5.00 + 5.00 + 5.00 = 20.00

3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 = 31.5

20.00 + 31.5 = 51.5

B

5.00 + 5.00 + 5.00 + 5.00 = 20.00

3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 = 35.00

20.00 + 35.00 = 55.00

C

5.00 + 5.00 + 5.00 = 15.00

3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 + 3.50 = 31.5

15.00 + 31.5 =46.5

Knowing that for the first one all A,B, and C were wrong we can determine that D is the answer. But wait if I made one mistake and didn't understand if $156.5 is equivalent to $156.50 that would mean A is correct.

Always recheck your answers and good luck,

Jon
