Write a let" statement for the unknown, write an equation, and solve the equation. 11. jane bought a number of records for $7 each. she then spent $3 more for a poster. if she spent a total of $24, how many records did she buy?

Let n = number of records.

Each record costs $7, so n records cost 7n.

She then spent $3, so the total spent is 3n + 3.

She spent a total of $24, so 3n + 3 must equal 24. That gives us the following equation.

7n + 3 = 24

Subtract 3 from both sides.

7n = 21

Divide both sides by 7.

n = 3

She bought 3 records.

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−51

−3

x=17

answer:

x=17
