.
(a) Write an equation that could be used to answer the question above. First, choose the appropriate form. Then, fill in the blanks with the numbers 6, 7, and 42. Let h represent the amount (in dollars) Tammy gets paid each
hour.
blank(h+blank)=
blank (h-blank)=
now redo this equation
7h-6=42
do the same u did for last time but i put a extra part with this equations
David went to the store after school 3 days this week. Each day, he bought a sandwich and a comic book. He spent a total of $24 at the store this week. He paid $6 for each sandwich. How much did he pay for each comic book? (Assume he paid the same for each comic book.
Write an equation that could be used to answer the question above. First, choose the appropriate form. Then, fill in the blanks with the numbers 3, 24, and 6. Let c represent the amount (in dollars) he paid for each comic book.
Solve the equation in part (a) to find the amount (in dollars) he paid for each comic book.
=c
3c + 3(6) = 24
3c + 18 = 24
3c = 6
c = 2
Therefore, David paid $2 for each comic book.

Four friends went out to lunch. They each started with the same amount of money, and they each spent $6. They ended with a combined total of $12. How much money did each of them have to start?
Write an equation that could be used to answer the question above. First, choose the appropriate form. Then, fill in the blanks with the numbers 4, 6, and 12. Let x represent the amount (in dollars) each person had to start
(b) Solve the equation in part (a) to find the amount (in dollars) each person had to start
4x - 4(6) = 12
4x - 24 = 12
4x = 36
x = 9
Therefore, each person started with $9.

Chang has a part-time job and gets paid the same amount each hour. For each hour he works, he puts $7 aside for his mom. Chang works 5 hours a day and the total amount he keeps each day is $35. How much does he get paid each hour?
Write an equation that could be used to answer the question above. First, choose the appropriate form. Then, fill in the blanks with the numbers 7, 5, and 35. Let h represent the amount (in dollars) Chang gets paid each hour.
b) Solve the equation in part (a) to find the amount (in dollars) Chang gets paid each hour.
=h
5h - 7 = 35
5h = 42
h = 42 / 5
h = 8.4
Therefore, Chang gets paid $8.40 each hour.
b is the
wrong answer
Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's solve the equation again:
5h - 7 = 35
5h = 35 + 7
5h = 42
h = 42 / 5
h = 8.4
Therefore, Chang gets paid $8.40 each hour. Thank you for your patience, and I appreciate your understanding.
