Answer: £66</h3>
Your teacher may want you to leave off the pounds sign.
==========================================================
Explanation:
x = amount Bill gets
3x = amount Sam gets, because he gets three times as much
x+3x = 4x = total amount of money
4x = 88
x = 88/4
x = 22
Bill gets £22
3x = 3*22 = 66
Sam gets £66
Note that 22+66 = 88 to help confirm the answer.
Answer:
7 books
Step-by-step explanation:
make an equation
x = # of books each book is $4 so its 4x
the shipping fee no matter how many books he buys will be $2 so it's just 2
the equation looks like this:
4x + 2 = 30
we set equal to 30 cuz he can't spend more than $30
solve for x
4x = 30 -2
4x = 28
x = 7
Brett can buy no more than 7 books.
I’m not completely sure but I think the answer is C.
