Answer:
x = 8
x = 21/14
x = 8
x = 15/21
x = 1/4
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
(For all instances of number, let it be x)
Double the sum of a number and 15. The result is the same as the product of 23 and the number.
2x + 15 = 23 + x
2x - x + 15 = 23 + x - x
x + 15 = 23
x + 15 - 15 = 23 - 15
x = 8
Multiply a number by 15 and add 2. The result is the same as the sum of 23 and the number.
15x + 2 = 23 + x
14x + 2 = 23
14x = 21
x = 21/14
Double a number and add 15. The result is the same as the sum of 23 and the number.
2x + 15 = 23 + x
x + 15 = 23
x = 8
Double a number and add 15. The result is the same as the product of 23 and the number. (This time we will move the x to the other side as the right side has a larger x than the left side)
2x + 15 = 23x
15 = 21x
x = 15/21
Multiply a number by 15 and add 2. The result is the same as the product of 23 and the number.
15x + 2 = 23x
2 = 8x
2/8 = x
x = 1/4
Double the sum of a number and 15. The result is the same as the sum of 23 and the number.
2(x + 15) = 23 + x
2x + 30 = 23 + x
x + 30 = 23
x = 7
Step 1: Find the LCD (Least Common Denominator)
The LCD between 4 and 8 is 8. Therefore, if I change all of the fractions to have a denominator of 8, the problem is as such:
3/8 - 2/8 = ?
Step 2: Subtract
3/8 - 2/8 = 1/8

Answer:
$114.54
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to answer this question, we are going to have to do some multiplication :)
First, we will find out how much Maria got paid on Monday. In order to find this, we must multiply 5.1 hours by $9.20, so
5.1 * 9.20 = 46.92
We will be using this number a little later. Next, we have to find out how much Maria got paid on Tuesday, so we have to multiply 7.35 hours by $9.20, so
7.35 * 9.20 = 67.62
Now, we will combine the numbers:
67.62 + 46.92 = 114.54
Therefore, Maria earned $114.54 this week
Hope this helps :)
