While shopping for clothes, tracy spent $38 less than 3 times what daniel spent. write and solve an equation to find how much daniel spent. let x represent how much daniel spent.

(tracy spent $10)

$16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x be the amount of money Daniel spent.

Tracy spent $38 less than 3 times what Daniel spent.

Daniel spent = $x

3 times what Daniel spent = $3x

$38 less than 3 times what Daniel spent = $(3x-38)

So,

Tracy spent = $(3x-38)

If Tracy spent $10, then

Hence, Daniel spent $16
