X = number of lessons, y = total cost
y = 15x + 20 <== ur equation
when total bill was 125...y = 125
125 = 15x + 20
125 - 20 = 15x
105 = 15x
105/15 = x
7 = x <=== if Bill took 7 lessons, it would cost 125 <==
Hi Bre,
Since lines a and b are parallel, we know that in the image:
- ∡1 ⇔ ∡5
- ∡2 ⇔ ∡6
- ...
- ∡4 ⇔ ∡8
We're given the angle of ∡7, which is 114°. We can see that ∡7 + ∡8 will equal to 180° (since line b is a straight line) and since ∡8 ⇔ ∡4, we can deduct that ∡7 + ∡4 = 180°.
From here, it's just imputing the information and solving.
⇒ 114° + ∡4 = 180°
⇒ ∡4 = 180° - 114°
⇒ ∡4 = 66°
-Hope this helps!
Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)
First, subtract 6 from both sides
-4x + 6 (-6) = -38 (-6)
-4x = -38 - 6
-4x = -44
Next, fully isolate the x by dividing -4 from both sides
(-4x)/-4 = (-44)/-4
x = -44/-4
x = 11
11 is your answer for x.
