Articles of clothing that the store received last Thursday is 84
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that
A clothing donation store received numerous articles of clothing on Thursday of last week.
The number of articles of clothing that the store received last Thursday is represented by the following expression:
4 (3x − 1) − 2 (6 + 2x)
Need to calculate articles of clothing that the store received last Thursday when x = 12.5
As on Thursday x = 12.5, need to substitute x = 12.5 in above equation to get number of articles received on Thursday.
On substituting x = 12.5, we get
4 ( (3 x 12.5 ) – 1 ) – 2 ( 6 + ( 2 x 12.5 ) )
=> 4 (37.5 – 1) – 2 (6 + 25)
=> 146 – 62 = 84
On substituting x = 12.5 , we are getting value of expression as 84.
Hence articles of clothing that the store received last Thursday is 84
Steve has 30 cards if you add 39 and 51 in the divided by three you will get 30 which is the amount of cards Steve has
5(x-2)+7=65-4(5x-8)
We move all terms to the left:
5(x-2)+7-(65-4(5x-8))=0
We multiply parentheses
5x-(65-4(5x-8))-10+7=0
We calculate terms in parentheses: -(65-4(5x-8)), so:
65-4(5x-8)

-4(5x-8)+65
We multiply parentheses
-20x+32+65
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-20x+97
Back to the equation:
-(-20x+97)
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
5x-(-20x+97)-3=0
We get rid of parentheses
5x+20x-97-3=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
25x-100=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
25x=100
x=100/25
x=4
