9(m +5) - 3(m - 2) = 8m + 31

m=10

Step-by-step explanation:

9(m+5)−3(m−2)=8m+31

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

9(m+5)−3(m−2)=8m+31

9m+45+−3m+6=8m+31

(9m+−3m)+(45+6)=8m+31(Combine Like Terms)

6m+51=8m+31

Step 2: Subtract 8m from both sides.

6m+51−8m=8m+31−8m

−2m+51=31

Step 3: Subtract 51 from both sides.

−2m+51−51=31−51

−2m=−20

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

m=10

Hope this helps girly!!

let y equal to

the total fare and x is the mile of taxi ride. so the equation is

y = 0.55x + 1.75

since susie has

$10 to spend for a taxi cab, so he can have

10 = 0.55x +

1.75

x = 15 miles of

taxi ride

so the system of

inequality is

10 < 0.55x +

1.75

x > 2
