Jeremiah got $65 on birthday and spent some money on 3 video games and was left with $14.
He purchased 3 video games.
Let the cost one one video game be v.
The cost of each video game is same
So the cost of 3 video games is 3v.
Also he is left with $14 after paying for three games.
Hence
3v + 14 = 65
Subtracting 14 from both sides
3v + 14 -14 = 65-14
3v = 51
Dividing by 3 on both sides
v = 51/3
v = 17
Hence the cost of each video game is $17
Hey there!
c² = 5c
Subtract 5c from both sides:
c² - 5c = 5c - 5c
Simplify :
c² - 5c = 0
c = 5 , c = 0

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When x represents the number, "the sum of 3 and a number" is (x+3). Twice that sum is 2(x+3). "Is 30" means this expression is equal to 30:
2(x +3) = 30 . . . . an equation for the given conditions
__
We can solve this equation by dividing by 2:
x + 3 = 15
x = 12 . . . . . . subtract 3
The number is 12.
