(74pts) i offer all my points to anyone but me! write a real-world problem that can be represented by the algebraic equation shown. 5x + 6 = 66

Jane is playing a game with Mike. Right now, Mike is winning, he has 10 more than 5 times the points that Jane has. If Jane has 47 points, how many points does Mike have?

or you could do 

Martha is doing an inventory of all the goods in her shop. For the brand Toms shoes, she should have recieved an order that would have brought the total number of Toms shoes in her store to 10 more than 5 times the number of shoes she has now. If Martha has 89 pairs of Toms in her store, how many would she have had, if she had recieved the delivery?

hope this helped :)

Real world example:
Lily needs to sell 66 tickets.  She has already sold 6, and has to sell the rest in groups of 5.  How many groups does she need to sell to meet her goal?

5x + 6 = 66
5x +6 - 6 = 66 - 6
5x = 60
5x/5 = 60/5 
x = 12

Lily needs to sell 12 more groups of her bundles to meet her goal.
