Harlie made $ 150 after working several hours.
She was paid $ 7.50 hourly.
She also got a bonus of $ 15, while she worked.
Write the equation and solve "H" for hours.
150 = 7.5H + 15
- 15 - 15
135 = 7.5H
18 = H

Fluffy the Iguana should eat 3.5 ounces of veggies each day.
Her owner left a bowl of 24.7 ounces in her cage.
If Fluffy ate 2.75 ounces this morning, how many more days of food are remaining ?
24.7 = 3.5 D + 2.75
- 2.75 - 2.75
21.95 / 3.5 = 3.5 Days / 3.5
6.27 = D
6 more days ( not 7 days ! )

Your goal is to run 37 miles in less than a week.
If you run the same distance for 4 days, and 3 miles on Friday, what mileage should you run each of those 4 days ?
37 = 4 M + 3
-3 - 3
34 = 4M
/ 4 / 4
8.5 = M
