Answer:
She has 8 grandchildren
Each grandchild gets 50 cents
Step-by-step explanation:
She has $8, split between 4 sons is $2 each.
Each son splits $2 between their 4 children
2 divided by 4 is 0.50
We have the following rule for exponents:
then, in this case we have:
Basically all you need to do is estimate what 32.7 x 2.8 is. If what you get is close to 91.56, then Tom's answer is reasonable. If what you get is not close to 91.56, then his answer is not reasonable. Do you know how to estimate by rounding?
Answer:
box contains - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
a(x - 3) + 2x = -(x - 5) +4 Remove the brackets on both sides
ax - 3a + 2x = -x + 5 + 4 Subtract 2x from both sides.
ax - 3a + 2x - 2x = -x - 2x + 9
ax - 3a = - 3x + 9
ax - 3(-3) = - 3x + 9
ax + 9 = - 3x + 9
Now if you make a = -3 then both sides with have - 3 for the x coefficient.
Any number could be put in for x and it will make the answer on both sides equal. Notice you could subtract 9 from both sides and it will not change the condition of the problem.
