Here's how to find the value of x:
<span>9 - 0.75 ( x + 8 ) - 5 = -6.5 find the difference of 9 - 0.75
</span><span>8.25 ( x + 8 ) - 5 = -6.5 add 5 to both sides
</span>
8.25 ( x + 8 ) = -1.5 distribute 8.25 to x and 8
8.25x + 66 = -1.5 subtract 66 from both sides
8.25x = -67.5 divide both sides by 8.25
x = 18.18181818...... the value of x is 18 2/11
hope this helps
Answer:
105 shifts
Step-by-step explanation:
Hourly net rate of pay = $12
1 shift = 8 hours
⇒ net pay per shift = $12 × 8 = $96
Total cost = tuition + residence + books
= $4500 + $4800 + $700
= $10,000
To calculate how many shifts Joanne needs to work, divide the total cost by the pay per shift and round it up:
Number of shifts = total cost ÷ net pay per shift
= $10,000 ÷ $96
= 104.1666666...
= 105 shifts
<u>Note</u>: we need to round up, as if Joanne works 104 shifts, she will earn $9,984 which is not quite enough to pay for tuition, residence and books.
in order to solve these equations, you need to divide the number by the varible. so #5 is 2.5y=5. you would divide 5 by 2.5, to get 2. the answer would be y=2
