Answer:
Molly paid for each song $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ------> amount that Molly paid for each song
we know that
The amount that Molly paid for each song multiplied by 8 is equal to the gift card value
so
The linear equation that represent this problem is

Solve for x
Divide by 8 both sides


Molly paid for each song $1.5
Hi there!
First you simplify.
Simplified = 9x+(−5)+(−8)+x
Then you combine the like terms.
<span><span><span><span><span>9x</span>+(<span>−5)</span></span>+(<span>−8)</span></span>+x (*-5 and -8 are like terms) (9x and x are like terms)
</span></span><span><span><span>Combined it's~ (<span><span>9x</span>+x</span>)</span>+<span>(<span><span>−5</span>+<span>−8</span></span>)
</span></span></span><span><span><span>Solve and that comes to 10x</span>+<span>−<span>13 which is your answer. :)
Hope this helps.

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
butterfly = x minutes
breast = y minutes
total is 50 minutes
breast stroke = butterfly +20
Part A
x+y = 50
y = x+20
Part B
Substitute the second equation into the first
x+ (x+20) = 50
2x+20 = 50
2x+20-20 = 50-20
2x = 30
2x/2 = 30/2
x = 15
y = x+20
y = 20+15
y = 35 minutes
35 minutes on the breast stroke
Part C
45 minutes on the butterfly is not reasonable
We only have a total of 50 minutes
50-45 = 5
But he spend more time on the breast stroke ( 20 minutes more), but if he spend 45 minutes on the butterfly, he would have to spend less on the breast stroke.
