(x + 6)/2 - (x - 8)/3 = 5
Multiply each term by 6:-
3(x + 6) - 2(x - 8) = 30
3x + 18 - 2x + 16 = 30
3x - 2x = 30 -18 - 16
x = 30 - 34
x = -4 (answer)
Using the data below, what is the equation for the line of best fit? Remember, put your answer in y = ax + b form and round any decimals to two places.
The Strawberry mango is more expensive by $0.01 more it being 1.10 every ounce and the tropical punch being least expensive it being $1.09
Simplified expression for total amount spent is 10(2.05 + m)
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Write expression for expense on joining cooking club for m months.
Expense = 8.50 + 6.25 × m
- Step 2: Write expression for expense on joining movie club for m months.
Expense = 12 + 3.75 × m
- Step 3: Calculate the total amount spent on both clubs
Total Amount = 8.50 + 6.25m + 12 + 3.75m = 20.5 + 10m = 10(2.05 + m)
