Answer:

So your answer is x = 11.2068965517

or

about, X = 11.21 (to the nearest tenth)

Explanation:

50.30x + 120 = 38.70x + 250 (Given)

Move variables to the right and constants to the left by subtracting both sides.

11.6x = 130 (subtraction Property of equaity)

x = 11.2068965517 (Division property of equality)

Answer:

11.2 hours

Explanation:

The unknown is the hour time: 120+50.30x=250+38.70x. Now solve it: Subtract 38.70 and 120 from both sides and you get 11.6x=130 x=130/11.6 or 11.2 (about)

So the answer is 11.2 hours. Hope this helps :D
