Today the school's math club has $75 in its account. Yesterday the club members spent $27.75 on fees to enter a competition. The equation 75=a-27.7575=a−27.75 represents this situation. What does the variable : a represent in this situation?

a represents the amount of money that the math club had yesterday in its account.

Step-by-step explanation:

the account currently has $75.Yesterday, they spent $27.75 in fee to enter a competition, so that means that before they paid the fees, the math club's account had $75 + $27.75 = $102.75

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

but which class are u may know that first
