Answer 1

ok, so the equation would be: .25x+.12=1.09
Do u get how I got this?

Answer 3

er.... .25+.12x=1.09

Answer 4

ok so x=days. and 1.09 is the fine on 1 book. .25 is the number that is "always there"

Answer 5

is the answer 7 days ?

and so solve the equation.

.25+.12x=1.09
.12x=.84
x=7

And yes it is.
