Answer:
I gues s it s yes. if correct brainlest answer pla..
If you simplify (take out the brackets) of this equation. 5(x+10)=30 then it would be
5 times x + 5 times 10 = 30
5x+10=30
So yes they have the same solution
Answer:
16 - 2 = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The lines mean absolute value and the absolute value of -16 is and of -2 is 2
Let x = the total number of pennies her piggy bank can hold.
Then 2/3x = the number of pennies she started with
Then 2/3x - 80 = the number of pennies she has left after taking out 80 pennies.
Then 1/2x = the number of pennies she has left after taking out 80 pennies.
Build the equation.
2/3x - 80 = 1/2x
Subtract 1/2x from each side of the equation.
(2/3x - 80) - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x
1/6x - 80 = 0
Add 80 to both sides of the equation.
(1/6x - 80) + 80 = 0 + 80
1/6x = 80
Divide both sides by 1/6.
(1/6x) / 1/6 = 80 / 1/6
x = 480
So, Linda's piggy bank can hold 480 pennies!
