The answer would be x ≠ 0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First start with the left side, doing distributive property
So... -2(x) = -2x and -2(5) = -10 Therefore on the left side you now have -2x -10
Next do the same on the right side
-2(x) = - 2x and -2(-2) = 4 so you have -2x + 4 + 5 and you add 4 and 5, leaving you with -2x + 9
Now that you have simplified both sides the problem now looks like this:
-2x - 10 = -2x + 9
Because you have equal terms on both sides (-2) those cancel out so you have -10 = 9
Just from looking at this we know that the statement is false because -1o does not equal 9
*The symbol, "≠" means not equal to"
Answer:
16% is the percent of increase to the nearest whole-number percent.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the cost of a pound of nails increased from $2.17 to $2.52.
so dividing the 0.35 by 2.17 would give us the percetange of increase
- 0.35/2.17 = 0.16 which is 16%.
Therefore, 16% is the percent of increase to the nearest whole-number percent.
