A carpenter bought 5 identical boxes of nails. She used 25 nails fir a project and now has 435 nails left. Which equation can be solved to find the number of nails in each box.

The equation that can be solved to find the number of nails in each box =

5x = 460

The number of nails in each box = 92 nails

Step-by-step explanation:

A carpenter bought 5 identical boxes of nails. She used 25 nails for a project and now has 435 nails left. Which equation can be solved to find the number of nails in each box.

Let the number of nails in each box be represented by x

Therefore our Equation =

5x = 25 + 435

5x = 460

Solving for x

5x/5 = 460/5

x = 92 nails

Therefore, the number of nails in each box = 92 nails

answer: true

step-by-step explanation:

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
