Answer:

soccer balls = 80

basketballs = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

let S = number of soccer balls sold

let B = number of basketballs sold

If the store sold 40 more basketballs than soccer balls, then

B = S + 40

If the store sold $4800 worth of soccer and basketballs last month at a cost of $33 for a soccer ball and $18 for a basketball, then:

33S + 18B = 4800

Substitute the first equation B = S + 40 into the second equation and solve for S:

33S + 18(S + 40) = 4800

33S + 18S + 720 = 4800

51S + 720 = 4800

51S = 4080

S = 80

Substitute S = 80 into B = S + 40 to find B:

B = 80 + 40 = 120

Describe the equation 2x + 15 = 23 + x in words.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

x = 8

x = 21/14

x = 8

x = 15/21

x = 1/4

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(For all instances of number, let it be x)

Double the sum of a number and 15. The result is the same as the product of 23 and the number.

2x + 15 = 23 + x

2x - x + 15 = 23 + x - x

x + 15 = 23

x + 15 - 15 = 23 - 15

x = 8

Multiply a number by 15 and add 2. The result is the same as the sum of 23 and the number.

15x + 2 = 23 + x

14x + 2 = 23

14x = 21

x = 21/14

Double a number and add 15. The result is the same as the sum of 23 and the number.

2x + 15 = 23 + x

x + 15 = 23

x = 8

Double a number and add 15. The result is the same as the product of 23 and the number. (This time we will move the x to the other side as the right side has a larger x than the left side)

2x + 15 = 23x

15 = 21x

x = 15/21

Multiply a number by 15 and add 2. The result is the same as the product of 23 and the number.

15x + 2 = 23x

2 = 8x

2/8 = x

x = 1/4

Double the sum of a number and 15. The result is the same as the sum of 23 and the number.

2(x + 15) = 23 + x

2x + 30 = 23 + x

x + 30 = 23

x = 7
