Answer:
Step 1 is incorrect because it was mutiplied. Instead, you should divide.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Jake bought 3 drawing pens for $8.07.
Each pen costs the same amount.
To find:
How much did he spend for one pen?
Solution:
Let x be the cost of each pen. Then
Cost of three pens = 3x
Jake bought 3 drawing pens for $8.07.

Divide both sides by 3.


Therefore, he spend $2.69 for one pen.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=2 and XM=11
Step-by-step explanation:
because M is the midpoint of the line, you know that both XM and ZM are equal and you know an expression for the lengths of both of these.
set these expressions equal and solve:
4x+3=3x+5 so by subtracting the 3x from the right side, moving it over to the left and subtracting 3 from the left side to move it over to the right, you get:
x=2
then to find XM, plug in this value of x to get XM=11
4(2)+3=11
