You had $23.70 to spend on two raffle tickets. after buying them you had $17.90. how much did each raffle ticket cost?

Hi,

Each raffle ticket costs $2.90. This is because we had $23.70 to start with and we ended up with $17.90 so we subtract those together to get $5.80. We then divide this by two (representing two tickets) to get each raffle ticket being $2.90.

Have a great day!

He spent $5.80 on each ticket

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x

answer is  

c.

hope you get this right
