Question

Natalie is a softball coach. She has a pitching private lesson with Kasey. Kasey’s mom pays Natalie $11 per hour plus a $6 tip. The correct equation was 11x + 6 = 39. So, how many hours was the lesson?

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step by Step:

Subtract the tip ($6) from the total ($39)

11x=33

Then divide 33 by 11, leaving you with the value of x.

x=3

The lesson was 3 hours long.
