The first one you have
=
. To solve this you would multiply both sides by 3.
=x
Then simplify by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3.
=x (or in a mixed fraction 1
)
The second one you have
=
. To solve this you would multiply both sides by x.
x=3
Now you would divide both sides by
.
x=
You now then multiply 3 by 24 and then divide by 7.

x=
(in a mixed fraction would be 10
)
X is equal to 23
15/3 = 5
36/3 = 12
39/3 = 13 then add the 10 and you get 23
Is there a sort of graph that I could look at and then I could tell, because I don’t just know this information off the top of my head.
Answer: d) 3 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the required number of hours for which the total fee charged by the companies the same.
Given: Peppy Pets charges a flat fee of $15 plus $3 per hour .
So Total charge = 15+3x ( in dollars)
Happy Hounds charges a flat fee of $21 plus $1 per hour.
So Total charge = 21+x ( in dollars)
When the total charge for both companies are the same, then

Hence, the correct option is d) 3 hours.
