Part A: Create an equation that will determine the number of days x on the trip (3 points)

Part B: Solve this equation justifying each step with an algebraic property of equality. (6 points)

Part C: How many days did David spend on this trip? (1 points)


Sagot :

60d=3390-(600/0.65)
60d=(3390/1)-(600/0.65)
60d=(2203.5/0.65)-(600/0.65)
60d=1603.5/.65
60d/60=(1603.5/0.65)/(60/1)
d=(1603.5/0.65)(1/60)
d=1603.5/39
d
≈41.115

David spent a little more then forty-one days on his trip
