A video rental store charges $4 per day to rent a movie and $3 per day to rent a video game. During one summer, Tony paid a total of $140 to rent movies and video games from this store. If he rented 7 more video games than movies, how much did he spend on movie rentals during the summer?

the answer i got was 17 i dont think its right but yeah

Step-by-step explanation:

I have two ways to solve.

First one- write an equation. I used x to represent the number of movie rentals. The one I made was (3x+{7x3})+4x=140. Solve.

Second (the one I did in my head to solve this): take away 7 video games ($21) from 140 which is 119.

Then add 4+3 and divide 119 by that.

You get seventeen.

the answer for this question is 38

24+x=y
