It can help you by showing you what you do more simplified. For example 3(x+5) is 3 time x + 3 times 5
It would take josue 13 months to save for the TV
3.625 is the answer. Enjoy!
Ax - c = 2x + 5
ax - c + c = 2x + 5 + c
ax = 2x + 5 + c
ax - 2x = 2x - 2x + 5 + c
ax - 2x = c + 5
X(a - 2) = c + 5
X(a - 2)/(a - 2) = c+5/(a-2)
X = c+5/a-2
I believe this would be the solution.
