Question 1010853: Hannah has $24.26. If she gets $10 more, she will have two dollars less than twice the amount Joey has.
If Joey has x dollars, which equation can be used to find x? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Using x for what Joey has, we can write
24.26 + 10 = 2x - 2
Then to solve this we have
34.26 = 2x - 2
36.26 = 2x
x = $18.13
