Answer 1

Answer:

25.00 + 0.50x =82.50

(we are learning this in school btw i am in 7th grade math)

Step-by-step explanation:

first put the variable for the amount a miles the truck has driven so i put x

then make the known parts of the equation so

25.00 + (number of miles(x)*0.50) and that would equal 82.50

then you simplify (number of miles(x)*0.50)

so basically 0.50x then you rewrite as

25.00 + 0.50x =82.50

-hope this helps btw love the new formating brainly has

(can you mark brainlist like you promised)

basically use this to find x

thx
