I earn 770.98(R) every week. I have 385.49(R) since I spent the other half on toys. I want extra items on a game, but it's 1,541.72(R). How long will I have to wait until I save enough money for it? 385.49 + 770.98 < 1,541.72. (It's in Russian dollar so lemme translate) 385.49 = 5 US dollar) 770.98 = 10 US dollar) 1,541.72 = 20 US dollar)

1.5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

weekly

Required

Determine the time taken to save up

Represent the time with t

The relationship between the given parameters can be expressed as:

Amount + Earnings in t weeks = Game Cost

This gives:

Solve for t

Approximated

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
