To find the amount he spent on bags of mulch you must take the cost of the shovel away from the total, giving the equation:
46.16-14.75=3.49x
To covert this to whole numbers, multiply by 100
4616-1475=349x
3141=349x
x=9
Answer:
I believe it's the first one
Answer:
p = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 18 from behind the equal sign to cancel it out. This leaves you with 2(p+1)- 18= 0.
Next you'll need to pull out the terms to work with the beginning of the problem. 2(p+1)- 18= 0 would turn into 2p - 16 = 2(p - 8).
This would leave you with 2= 0, but that's not true so continue on to the variable.
So p - 8= 0 making the answer p = 8

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
4x - 5 = x - 1 + 3x
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Combine like terms: 4x - 5 = 4x - 1
- Subtract 4x on both sides: -5 ≠ -1
Here we see that -5 does not equal -1.
∴ This equation has no solutions.
