Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
3x +17 + 5x = 7x +10
3x +17 + 5x - 7x = +10-17
x=-7
Answer:
Washing cars= 4 hours
Walking dogs= 10 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to start by creating equations. So one thing we know is that he makes $9 an hour washing cars(x) and $8 walking dogs(y).
$9x+$8y=$116
The second Equation is based off of the hours worked. We know that he worked 6 hours more walking the dogs than he did washing cars, so we can take x(being the washing hours) and add 6 to it to equal y (the number of dog hours).
y=x+6
Now You plug what y equals into the first equation to solve for x.
9x+8(x+6)=116 Next distribute the 8 to each term.
9x+8(x)+8(6)=116
9x+8x+48=116 Add the like terms together (9x+8x)
17x+48=116 Subtract the 48 from both sides
-48 -48
17x=68 Now divide by 17 on both sides.
______
17 17
x=4 Finally we can take x and plug it back in to one of the equations in order to solve for y. I'm going to choose the second equation.
y=(4)+6
y=10
Solve for r.
You want to get r by itself on one side on the equal sign.
bh + hr = 25
Subtract bh from both sides.
hr = 25 - bh
Divide h on both sides.
r = 25 - bh / h
The two h's cancel each other out.
r = 25 - b
Hope this helps!
