You and five friends form a team for an outdoor adventure race. Your team needs to raise money to pay for $130 of travel fees, $x$ dollars for each team member’s entry fee, and $85.50 for food. Use an algebraic expression to find the total amount your team needs to raise when the entry fee is $25.50 per person.

(130+85)+25.5p=total amount

Step-by-step explanation:

130+85 is how much you'd need just for the fees and food, for the entry fee its per person so it would be $25.5 for every person that is part of your team.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
