19. Solving Equations with Variables on Both Sides 10-3 Course 3 Additional Example 3: Consumer Application Jamie spends the same amount of money each morning. On Sunday, he bought a newspaper for $1.25 and also bought two doughnuts. On Monday, he bought a newspaper for fifty cents and bought five doughnuts. On Tuesday, he spent the same amount of money and bought just doughnuts. How many doughnuts did he buy on Tuesday?

20. Solving Equations with Variables on Both Sides 10-3 = 3d 3 0.75 3 Course 3 Additional Example 3 Continued First solve for the price of one doughnut. Let d represent the price of one doughnut. 1.25 + 2d = 0.50 + 5d – 2d– 2d Subtract 2d from both sides. 1.25 = 0.50 + 3d Subtract 0.50 from both sides. – 0.50– 0.50 0.75 = 3d Divide both sides by 3. The price of one doughnut is $0.25. 0.25 = d

Choose one of the original expressions. 1.25 + 2d 1.25 + 2(0.25) = 1.75 Jamie spends $1.75 each morning. Find the number of doughnuts Jamie buys on Tuesday. Let n represent the number of doughnuts. 0.25n = 1.75 Divide both sides by 0.25. n = 7; Jamie bought 7 doughnuts on Tuesday.

22. Solving Equations with Variables on Both Sides 10-3 Course 3 Try This: Example 3 Helene walks the same distance every day. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, she walks 2 laps on the track, and then walks 4 miles. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, she walks 4 laps on the track and then walks 2 miles. On Saturdays, she just walks laps. How many laps does she walk on Saturdays?

23. Solving Equations with Variables on Both Sides 10-3 2 = 2 2x 2 Course 3 Try This: Example 3 Continued First solve for distance around the track. Let x represent the distance around the track. 2x + 4 = 4x + 2 – 2x– 2x Subtract 2x from both sides. 4 = 2x + 2 – 2– 2 Subtract 2 from both sides. 2 = 2x Divide both sides by 2. The track is 1 mile around. 1 = x
