Answer:

<h3>Move all the x terms to one side. Use inverse operations and add 1 5 x 15x 15x to both sides to keep the equation balanced. Solve by working backwards from the order of operations. This means we need to undo the −2 first by adding 2 to both sides of the equation to keep it balanced.</h3>

Kenny had a total of 140 minutes to read, do homework, and play video games. he spent x minutes reading. he spent 2(x + 5) minut

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

35 min

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the total time spent is 140min

and that the time spent reading is x minutes

and also that the time spent doing home work is 2(x+5)

the time spent playing video game is 25

the expression for the total time is given as

total = reading +homework +video game

140=x+2(x+5)+25

solving for x we have

140=x+2x+10+25

140=3x+35

140-35=3x

105=3x

x=105/3

x=35
