( - 8 + b )( - 4 - 3 ) = 0;
( - 8 + b )( - 7 ) = 0 ;
-8 + b = 0;
b = 8.
Answer: she is NOT correct the answer should be X= 19
How?:
the equation was 5x = 95
the 5 and x is being multiplied the opposite of multiplication is dividing
so 95/5= 19
therefor x= 19 and NOT 90
80% of 80 is 64. Hope this helps:)
If you want to solve it the answer is 13...
If you want multiple ways to write that here are some:
3x4+2-1
3x4+1
12+2-1
12+1
Etcetera
1/2 would not be a useful benchmark to compare these 2 fractions because both of them are greater than half. The benchmark fraction 1/2 is most useful when one fraction is less than half and the other more than 1/2. 5/8 is more than 4/8(1/2), and 9/10 is more than 5/10(1/2).
