please anyone help

Answer 6

The first rule of thumb, either thumb, is to show your work, rather than spending the day tagging people. There is a clear and obvious correlation. If you show it, they will come.

Answer 7

Have you considered solving for x? Dividing by 4 might be a good start.

Answer 8

@tkhunny x=145

Answer 9

The hotel room for one night was $145.

Answer 10

Did you solve for that or read it off the answer sheet? You simply MUST show your work.

Answer 11

I found that answer by multiplying 15 by 4 and then subtracting that number by 640. I then divided that new number by 4.

Answer 12

Hard way, mantar0078, but unique answers don't care how you find them.
