(c) Write an equation you could use to solve this problem. (Hint: distributive property)
Use m for your variable.

Respuesta :

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question we can set the following equation:

  • 3(m + 8.25) = 30

Solving for m if you need:

  • m + 8.25 = 30/3
  • m + 8.25 = 10
  • m = 10 - 8.25
  • m = 1.75
