: Allen practiced his trumpet for a total of 975 minutes during June, July, and August. He practiced 365 minutes in July and 325 minutes in August. Write and solve an equation to find the number of minutes he practiced during June. This question is from textbook saxon algebra 2
You can put this solution on YOUR website! June = x
July = y
August = z
x + y + z = 975
We're given y = 365 and z = 325...plug that into the equation
x + 365 + 325 = 975
Add the two numbers...
x + 690 = 975
Subtract 690 from both sides...
x + 690 - 690 = 975 - 690
x = 285
Allen practiced 285 minutes in June.
