To find out how many movies Jordan streamed in July, we can use the given equation:
\[ y = 3x + 20 \]
where:
- \( y \) is the total amount spent,
- \( x \) is the number of movies streamed.
We know that Jordan spent $98, so we can set \( y \) to 98:
\[ 98 = 3x + 20 \]
Now, let's solve for \( x \):
1. Subtract 20 from both sides:
\[ 98 - 20 = 3x \]
\[ 78 = 3x \]
2. Now, divide both sides by 3:
\[ x = \frac{78}{3} \]
\[ x = 26 \]
So, Jordan streamed **26 movies** that month. The information provided in your message is correct: Jordan streamed 26 movies in July.
