Question 497523: Devin's DVD ase has 3 rows of slots, but 5 slots are broken. If x equals the number of slots in a row, explain how the expession 3x - 5 relates to Devin's DVD case. Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The variable would be the number of
slots in a row, so 3 times that would be the
total number of slots. Subtract 5 from that is
the total number of slots that aren't broken.
