2*(x-5) = -33, so x-5 = -16.5, so x = -11.5
This is assuming that "the difference between a and b" is a-b, which seems to be the accepted interpretation.
The answer is 286
Step-by-step explanation:
70 x 4 = 280 plus 6 equals 286
Okay so 6.25 a student then it goes to 4.50 for 15 more students at 70 students its 358.75 now it drops another 1.75 so it would be 368.75 for 80 students so the equation is 4.48 x 80 = 368.75. enjoy :D
