Question

Translate the problem into a mathematical sentence, using was your variable

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Total CD's Lisa bought = 15

Jazz music = 3

World music = x

Find x

Total CD's Lisa bought = Jazz music + World music

15 = 3 + x

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation

15 - 3 = 3 + x - 3

12 = x

x = 12

Therefore,

World music = x = 12
