Question

Write a real world problem for the following equation: 80-3x=53

Answer 1

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify by both sides of the equation.

80-3x=53

80+-3x=53

-3x+80=53

Step 2: Subtract 80 from both sides.

-3x+80-80=53-80

-3x=-27

Step 3: Divide by both sides by 3.

-3x/-3 = -27/-3

x=9
