We have been given the steps to solve the equation as

Step 1: 2x = 18

Step 2: x = 18 − 2

Step 3: x = 16

There is an error in step 2.

We have 2x=18

x is in multiplication with 2. So in order to get rid of 2 from the left hand side, we perform opposite operation of multiplication i.e. division.

So we must divide both sides by 2.

Therefore, A is the correct option.

A) She did not divide 18 by 2.

1.Which fraction is the ratio expressed in simplest form?
olganol [36]

1.  divide each number by 6 and you get 4:3  answer c

2. 1x+4x=45  (the ratios give you how many of each you have)

5x=45  so x=9  that is the smallest number

3.  percent means out of 100  so 490/100  4.9

4  percent means out of 100  so .5/100  5/1000  = .005

a game is played with tokens according to the following rule and each round the player with the most tokens gives one token to e
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

47 rounds and Eve wins.

Step-by-step explanation:

If read right, the highest player, (player with the most tokens) has to lose 3 tokens each round, so starting off with Evelyn, 17 - 3 = 14, and the other two each have +1 added to them, so, E=14, A=17 V=16, now subtract three from A (Amelia) and don't forget that one token is always being discarded each round. So the toal number of tokens at the start was 48, (17 + 16 + 15) so right now the total tokens should be 47, which it is. now starting the second round, A gives up 3 tokens so, 17 -3, again equals 14 and each of the two other players get one token, so E=15, A=14 V=17. Now you know the general trend, so we can figure this out seeing that after each round the number of tokens decrease by one, so there will be a round till all tokens are out except one, so there will be 47 rounds and since E started with the highest number they will win.

Determine the slope of the line that contains the given points <br><br> J(-5, -2), K(5, −4)
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

-\frac15

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can utilize the slope formula to find the slope.

Slope Formula: S = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Remember that a coordinate is written in the form (x,y)

<h3>Find the Slope</h3>
  • S = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}
  • S = \frac{-4-(-2)}{5-(-5)}
  • S = \frac{-2}{10}
  • S = -\frac15

The slope of the line is -\frac15.

An auto shop charges a customer an equal amount for each new tire purchased plus an additional fee for an oil change.
Nitella [24]

The cost per unit of the auto shop function is the slope of the function

87 represents the slope and the cost per tire purchased

The function is given as:

\mathbf{C(t) = 87t + 32}

A linear function is represented as:

\mathbf{C(t) = mt + b}

Where:

m represents the slope or the unit rate.

So, by comparison:

\mathbf{m = 87}

This means that 87 represents the slope and the cost per tire purchased
