Jen bought: 4x
Carol bought 5y

4x=5y

Y=x-$1.75


1.75 x 5=8.75

5y=5x-$8.75

4x = 5x - $8.75
X=$8.75

One of Jens items = $8.75

Answer:

a=16

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all you subtract both sides by 2 which makes 6-2=a/4 +2-2 which makes 4=a/4. then you multiply both sides by 4,  4x4=a/4 x 4 which makes a= 16 now you check this by putting a into the equation then going 16/4=4 then adding 2,  4+2= 6 then checking if it equals which it does

In which order should you look for assistance with college expenses?
lyudmila [28]
The correct answer should be Choice B. 

Scholarships and merit aid are the best way to earn money to go to college. They don't have to be paid back. When it comes to loans, you should select federal before non-governmental because the interest rates are usually lower on federal loans.

NeX [460]

Options were not present in the question we are Stating below;

Rashida owns a bike rental company. She charges an initial fee of $10 for each rental and an hourly rate of $4. A customer paid $34 for a bike rental. Which of the equations below could be used to find how many hours, x, the customer rented the bike?

34 = 10 - 4x\\\\34 = 4 + 10x\\\\34 = 10 + 4x\\

Answer:

34 = 10 + 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount customer paid = $34

Initial fee = $10

Hourly rate = $4

We need to write the equation used to find how many hours, x, the customer rented the bike.

Solution:

Let the number of hours customer rented the bike be 'x'.

Now we can say that;

Amount customer paid is equal to sum of Initial fee plus Hourly rate multiplied by number of hours customer rented the bike.

framing in equation form we get;

34 =10+4x

Hence The equation used to find number of hours customer rented the bike is 34 =10+4x.
