Answer: x = 2,340 homes without children

There are 2,340 homes without children.

Step-by-step explanation:

'x' represent the number of homes without children

'y' represent the number of homes with children

x : y = 9 : 7

Since the total number of homes is 4160 means x + y = 4160.

From x + y = 4160 follows y = 4160 - x.

Plug y = 4160 - x into x : y = 9 : 7

x : (4160 - x) = 9 : 7

Can anybody write an equation for the following word story:
Rudiy27
40=6.95c+5.25
The $40 is what you want it all to equal, so that goes to one side by itself.
The CDs are 6.95 each, so they get a variable to show that.
The 5.95 is added to that, showing that it's only charged once.
Then, all you have to do is solve for c, which is the number of CD's you can buy.
