Item 11 You make $0.75 for every newspaper you sell. Write and solve an equation to find how many newspapers n you have to sell to buy the soccer cleats.
An equation is
=36.

You have to sell
newspapers.

0.75x=36

x=48

You need to sell 48 newspapers.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.75x=36

Divide both sides by 0.75 to isolate the variable x.

36÷0.75=48

x=48

Check your answer

48 × 0.75 = 36

6 on both sides and twelve on the top and the bottom

step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
