Tony has 75 dollars to spend on a game controller that costs $35 and used video games costing 8 dollars each. How many video games can he buy?

5 I think

Step-by-step explanation:

75-35=40 40 divided by 8 is 5

The answer is 5=x (he is able to buy 5 videogames)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to put this into an equation format with a variable (x) for the videogames. Here is what the equation should look like: 75 = 35 + 8x

75 being the total amount of money he has to spend, 35 being what he had to spend or knows he will spend on the controller, and the 8 is for each videogame. We put an 'x' behind the 8 to signal that we don't know how many games he can buy. So, then we need to solve the equation.

75=35+8x

-35 on both sides

So, 40=8x, then you divide by 8 to get x by itself

5=x

The 'x' in this equation is how many videogames he is able to buy. The way you could check your work is if you plugged 5 back into x. What I mean is this: 35+8(5) needs to equal 75, and it does, so you're good!

since both sides equal, there are infinitely many olutions.

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )
