Let x= # pages Liam read
x + (x+17) = 265
2x + 17 = 265
-17.          -17
2x=248
x=124
Liam read 124 pages

Solve the equation 3/4x+3-2x = -1/4+1/2x+5
elena55 [62]
Hi there! The answer is x = -1

Let's solve this equation step by step!
\frac{3}{4} x + 3 - 2x = - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2} x + 5

First collect terms.
- 1 \frac{1}{4} x + 3 = \frac{1}{2} x + 4 \frac{3}{4}

Subtract (1/2)x from both sides.
- 1\frac{3}{4} x + 3 = 4 \frac{3}{4}

Subtract 3 from both sides.
- 1\frac{3}{4} x = 1 \frac{3}{4}

And finally divide by -1 3/4
x = \frac{7}{4} \div - \frac{7}{4} = \frac{7}{4} \times - \frac{4}{7} = - \frac{28}{28} = - 1

4. The cost of a new house is being reduced 22%
olganol [36]
1. Ok so first I would find 22% of 212,000 to do that you do: 22 divide 100 = 0.22

2. Now that you’ve turned 22% into a decimal as 0.22 you find what 22% of 212,000 is like so: 0.22x212,000 =46,640


3. Now that you have to reduce 212,000 but 22% to do this you just subtract: 212,000-46,640= 165,360

They would purchase the house for $165,360
