2(x/8 + 3) = 7 + 1/4x what is x

x1 = 2 -

x2= 2 +

Step-by-step explanation:

x/4 + 6 = 7 + 1/4x

(x^2 - 1)/4x = 1

x^2 - 1 = 4x

x^2 - 4x -1 = 0

x= (4+)/2 = 2 -

x= 2 +

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
