Problema Solution
Franklin reads more books per year than Elena. Elena reads (x=17) books per year and Franklin reads (3x-6) books per year. How many more books did Franklin read than Elena in 5 Years? in order for this expression to make sense, what must the value of x be?
Answer provided by our tutors
In 1 year, the books Franklin read than Elena = (3x-6)-(x-17) = 2x+11
In 5 years, the books Franklin read than Elena = 5(2x+11) = 10x+55
So the result is (10x+55)
