F = 1/2(r + 6.5)
2f = r + 6.5
r = 2f - 6.5
Answer:
Her final answer should have been x = 1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Her 2 errors were that she didn't distribute the 2x to both 4 and -17 and that she made the 13 positive instead of negative when she added 4 and -17 together.
Correct solution:
8(x-3)+7=2x(4-17)
8x-24+7=8x-34x
-17=-34x
The negatives on both sides cancel each other out
x = 1/2
Think of it as two rectangular prisms next to each other, and find the volume of each one separately.
The big one on the left has a volume of 4 * 12 * 6, or 288.
The smaller one on the right has a volume of 2 * 6 * 6, or 72.
288 + 72 = 360. 360 cubic feet of water are needed.
Answer:
12 movies
Step-by-step explanation:
If you do not rent any vidoes you will be charged $45 no matter what, so...
Movies + 45 = total charge
each movie is 1.99 and you owe (total charge) $68.88
equation:
1.99x + 45 = 68.88
-45 -45 (subtract 45 from each side to keep equation balanced)
1.99x = 23.88 (now divide both sides by 1.99 to get x alone)
x = 12
you rented 12 movies
