Capucine played a game where she earned 179 points from building 11 museums and 4 libraries.
Lets assume x points she earn per library
She earns 4 more points for museum than library.
4 more points per museum per x . so the points earned per museum is x+4
she earned 179 points from 11 museums and 4 libraries.
So the equation becomes
( subtract 44 from both sides)
(divide by 15 from both sides)
x = 9
She earns 9 points per library
We know points per museum = x+4 = 9+4 = 13
She earns 13 points per museum .

Step-by-step explanation:
given that tonya charges 20$ monthly fee and 3$ per mile of her dog-walking service.
and beth does not charge any monthly fee but charges 5$ per mile of the dog walked in.
let x be the number of miles dog has walked in a month.
the amount tonya will charge on x miles = fixed monthly fee + number of miles * charge per mile = 20+3x
and the amount beth will charge on x miles = 0+ 5*x = 5x.
we are asked to find the x-value for which beth chargeable amount = tonya chargeable amount
that is 5x = 20+3x
5x-2x = 20
2x=20
x=
hence number of miles for which tonya and beth will charge the same amount is 10.
