Let the number be 'x'.
Three times a number will then give 3x
Therefore the equation will be:
Answer:
x=6 is not a solution
Step-by-step explanation:
We can substitute 6 as x to find out:
5(6-3)=6+13
first, because of PEMDAS we'll do 6-3
5(3)=6+13
multiply 5 by 3 and add 6 and 13
15=19
Since the statement is not true, that means that x=6 is not a solution
Hope this helps!

Solve the following using Substitution method
2x – 5y = -13
3x + 4y = 15


- To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.

- Choose one of the equations and solve it for x by isolating x on the left-hand side of the equal sign. I'm choosing the 1st equation for now.

- Add 5y to both sides of the equation.


- Multiply
times 5y - 13.

- Substitute
for x in the other equation, 3x + 4y = 15.

- Multiply 3 times
.

- Add
to 4y.

- Add
to both sides of the equation.

- Divide both sides of the equation by 23/2, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

- Substitute 3 for y in
. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for x directly.


- Add
to
by finding a common denominator and adding the numerators. Then reduce the fraction to its lowest terms if possible.

- The system is now solved. The value of x & y will be 1 & 3 respectively.

If its going by $11 for 2 hours then he babysat ?
ok so $11= 2 hours
11 x 3= 33 half of eleven is 5.5
so 33+ 5.5 = $38.50 so I believe the answer is 6 hours and 30 min but I'm not 100 percent positive
