The total cost C (in dollars) to participate in a ski club is given by the literal equation C=85x+60, where x is the number of ski trips you take. A. Solve the equation for x.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]x=(c-60)/85[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]c=85x+60[/tex]

Solve for x

That means -----> isolate the variable x

subtract 60 both sides

[tex]c-60=85x+60-60\\c-60=85x[/tex]

Divide by 85 both sides

[tex](c-60)/85=85x/85\\(c-60)/85=x[/tex]

Rewrite

[tex]x=(c-60)/85[/tex]
