To solve an equation that contains LIKE TERMS you just have to combine them together.

For example, 3x-22+2x=48.

3x-22+2x=48 Add both x's together.

5x-22=48 <this will be the answer. After that, just solve it like a regular equation.

If the equation that you're trying to solve looks like this, 5x-41=59+9x
Subtract the smallest number on both sides. 

5x-41=59+9x
-5x           -5x
-41=59+4x <this will be your answer and then you just have to solve it like a regular equation

The equation would look something like this: 50+60x (x being the number of hours the plumber worked)
Since the price increases by $60 every hour, the constant rate would be $60. The total cost of the bill would be 50+60*6

Answer:

b. 1:3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the hypotenuse of the first triangle, use a^2 + b^2 = c^2

c = sqrt (5^2 + 12^2)

c = 13

From here, since they are similar, you can set up a proportion
