Answer:

50x

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start!

5(3x + 7) = 20 – 2(x + 1)

So as we should know we have 'PEMDAS' standing for parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, and subtraction. You do math (any math) in the order of PEMDAS.

So lets start out with the parenthesis:

(3x +7) is 10x and (x +1) is 1x

now lets multiply:

So now we have that the equation is

5 · 10x · 1x

5 · 10x is 50x and 50 · 1x is 50x

Therefore our answer is 50x.

Hope this helped have a fantastic day! (✿◡‿◡)

Paul paid $ 25.50 for 3 cups of hot chocolate and cups of tea. The cost of each cup of tea was 2/3 the cost of each cup of hoy c

Allushta [10]

Let the cost of one cup of hot chocolate be = x

Let the cost of one cup of hot tea be = y

Paul paid $ 25.50 for 3 cups of hot chocolate and 4 cups of tea.

Equation becomes = $3x+4y=25.50$ ...(1)

As given, the cost of each cup of tea was 2/3 the cost of each cup of hot chocolate.

$y=\frac{2x}{3}$ .... (2)

Putting the value of y from (2) in (1)

$3x+4(\frac{2x}{3})=25.50$

= $3x+\frac{8x}{3}=25.50$

= $\frac{9x+8x}{3}=25.50$

= $17x=76.5$

x=4.5

$y=\frac{2x}{3}$

= $\frac{2*4.5}{3}$

y =3

Hence each cup of hot chocolate is $4.50

Each cup of tea is $3.
