Answer:
b = 4
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
<u>Algebra I</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
8b - 12 = 5b
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>b</u></em>
- Subtract 5b on both sides: 3b - 12 = 0
- Add 12 on both sides: 3b = 12
- Divide 3 on both sides: b = 4
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in b to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 8(4) - 12 = 5(4)
- Multiply: 32 - 12 = 20
- Subtract: 20 = 20
And we have our final answer!
$9 a day for 8 days.
So, for every day that went by they earned $9. In other words the answer is the Amount of Money Earned per day multiplied by the number of days!
So!
$9 * 8days
Or you can also think of it as this:
9+9+9+9+9+9+9+9
Our answer comes out to be 72!
