ust determine c, the amount of change in dollars he should give the customer. Which equation represents c? 20 minus 0.75 c = 9
20 minus 0.75 = 9 c
0.75 (9) + c = 20
0.75 c + 9 = 20
----------------- To solve this all it takes is two simple steps Simplify 1/2x =22 ------------------------ Multiply both sides by 2 2 · = 2 · 22 x = 44
