Answer:

x=21/23

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

3x+5y=21−20x+5y

Add 20x to both sides:

3x+5y+20x=−20x+5y+21+20x

23x+5y=5y+21

Subtract 5y to both sides:

23x+5y+−5y=5y+21+−5y

23x=21

Divide both sides by 23:

x=21/23

If there are 150 total instruments in said Orchestra, we'll need to divide that number in half.
75, simple enough. Now we know that half of 150 is 75.
Start by writing your problem like this: 150= 75w+37.5b
That equation is all I can think of, because 37.5 is half of 75, which means that's roughly the number you're looking for. Sorry if this doesn't help much<span />

Easy 6th grade math! Please help!
Pie

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation 10 + 2.50d = 850

David starts with $10 and each day he earns $2.50. The d represents a variable and can be any number.

To find d you must solve the equation.

10 + 2.50d = 850

2.50d = 840 (subtract 10 from 850)

d = 336 (divide 840 by 2.50)

It will take David 336 days to save $850.
