To solve the equation x + 15 = 13 + 7, first combine like terms 13 + 7 to get 20. Then subtract 15 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable x. The equation becomes x = 20 - 15. Simplifying further, we get x = 5.

Since neither Kayla nor Riley obtained the correct answer of x = 5, neither student is correct. Therefore, the correct answer is neither.

To solve the equation 36.8 = x + 7.3, we need to isolate the variable x by subtracting 7.3 from both sides of the equation. We get:

36.8 - 7.3 = x

Simplifying further, we have:

x = 29.5

Therefore, the value of x is 29.5.

To find the number of hours Seana worked, we can divide the total amount of money he made ($322) by his hourly wage ($14 per hour).

Let's set up the equation:

h hours * $14/hour = $322

To solve for h, we divide both sides of the equation by $14:

h = $322 / $14

Simplifying the right side of the equation, we have:

h = 23

Therefore, Seana worked 23 hours.

To find out how much more Heidi needs to save before buying the headset, we subtract the amount she already has saved from the cost of the headset.

Cost of the headset - Amount saved = Amount still needed to save

$149.99 - $99 = $50.99

Therefore, Heidi still needs to save $50.99 before buying the headset.
