Answer:
8 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Earning for each ticket is $0.25 and for each book is $2
If total earning for 4 tickets and x books is $17, then the equation is:
- 0.25*4 + 2x = 17
- 1 + 2x = 17
- 2x = 16
- x = 16/2
- x = 8
So Molly purchased 8 books
C! Like terms refer to the variables that are the same, rather than the coefficients (the numbers).
2 3/4 divided by 1/4
is
2 3/4 multiplied by 4/1
which is (2+3/4)*4 = 2*4 + 3/4*4 = 8+3 =<em>11</em>
She would have $904. 275 + 812= 1087. 75 + 60 + 48= 183. 1087 - 183 = 904. Check the math to make sure, I did it in my head.
If your solving for x, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the inequality:
-24 ≤ 3x - 9 First add 9 on both sides
-24 + 9 ≤ 3x - 9 + 9
-15 ≤ 3x Then divide 3 on both sides to get "x" by itself
-5 ≤ x [or x ≥ -5 if you prefer "x" to be on the left side]
