When solving an equation, you must do the same thing to both sides or else it won't be equal
when dealing with one unknown (x) try to get the unknown on one side
2(x-3)=1.2-x
distribute or multiply 2 by x then -3
so (2 times x)+(2 times -3[remember negative times positive=negative])
2x-6=1.2-x
add 6 to both sides
2x=7.2-x
add x to both sides
3x=7.2
divide both sides by 3
x=2.4
Answer:

with 
Step-by-step explanation:
We can study what happens day by day starting with day one (1) to understand how the recursive relation can be constructed:
Day # Number of stamps What is added relative to previous day
1 d1 = 80 + 1 = 81
2 d2 = 81 + 2 = 83 d2 = d1 + 2
3 d3 = 83 + 4 = 87 d3 = d2 + 
4 d4 = 87 + 8 = 95 d4 = d3 + 
5 d5 = 95 + 16 = 111 d5 = d4 + 
6 d6 = 111 + 32 = 143 d6 = d5 + 
(n+1) d(n+1) = dn + 
Answer:
4 rolls
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the wall = 12 *14 = 168 square feet
1 roll = 42 square feet.
x roll = 168
1/x = 42/168 Cross Multiply
42x = 168 Divide by 42
x = 168/42
x = 4 rolls
