Solve for x:
10 (x + 2) = 5 (x + 8)
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
10 x + 20 = 5 (x + 8)
Expand out terms of the right hand side:
10 x + 20 = 5 x + 40
Subtract 5 x from both sides:
(10 x - 5 x) + 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 40
10 x - 5 x = 5 x:
5 x + 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 40
5 x - 5 x = 0:
5 x + 20 = 40
Subtract 20 from both sides:
5 x + (20 - 20) = 40 - 20
20 - 20 = 0:
5 x = 40 - 20
40 - 20 = 20:
5 x = 20
Divide both sides of 5 x = 20 by 5:
(5 x)/5 = 20/5
5/5 = 1:
x = 20/5
The gcd of 20 and 5 is 5, so 20/5 = (5×4)/(5×1) = 5/5×4 = 4:
Answer: x = 4
Answer:
s=121
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
(m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 --> (0, y) or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis)
John gets a new job and receives a $800 signing bonus. After that, he makes $400 a day. [x = the number of days y = total earnings]
y = 400x + 800
[John earns $400 per day(x) plus a signing bonus(initial payment before working) of $800 = total amount of money he earns]
The slope is 400 or
The y-intercept is 800
Step-by-step explanation:
in probability,or means addition.
14/28+19/28
1/2+19/28
you then find the LCM of the denominator.
14+19/28
33/28
you then divide 33 by 28.
