Answer:
he is currently 34
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 6 = 5(x-26)
x + 6 = 5x - 130
+130 +130
x + 136 = 5x
-x -x
136 = 4x
/4 /4
x = 34
You can check your work as well:
34 + 6 = 40
34 - 26 = 8
8 x 5 = 40
The answer is -- 8 hours
Explanation:
8 (tip) x 6 (tables) = $48
104 - 48 = $56
56 / 7 = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Two factors that have a sum of 5 and a product of -66: 11 and -6.
x² + 5x - 66
= (x + 11)(x - 6).
To solve for x, we need to get all our constants on one side of the equal sign and all our variables on the other side of the equal sign.
3x - 24 = 81
3x -24 + 24 = 81 +24
3x = 81 + 24
3x = 105
3x/3 = 105 / 3
x = 105 / 3
