I had homework on this today lol

First, add 2 to both sides. It would then be 5x = 3x + 10. Then subtract 3x from both sides and you would end up with 2x = 10. Divide 2x by 2 and the 10 by 2. The answer is x = 5.

Subtract 3x from both sides
2x-2=8

Add 2 to both sides
2x=10

Divide both sides by 2
x=5

Final answer: x=5

Vesnalui [34]
Add 4 to both sides to isolate the variable (-4+4=0) (2x+0=2x) (0+4=4) which leaves you with 2x=4 divide both sides by 2 to get rid of the number in front of the variable to get x by itself (2x/2=x) (4/2=2) therefore you’re left with x=2 (lo siento yo no hablo español la respuesta es x=2)

If the mean weight of 4 backfield members on the football team is 221 lb and the mean weight of the 7 other players is 202 lb, w
MatroZZZ [7]

Let x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5, x_6, x_7, x_8, x_9, x_{10}, x_{11} be the weight of i-th player.

1. If the mean weight of 4 backfield members on the football team is 221 lb, then

\dfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4}{4}=221\ lb.

2. If the mean weight of the 7 other players is 202 lb, then

\dfrac{x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}}{7}=202\ lb.

3. From the previous statements you have that

x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4=221\cdot 4=884 \lb,\\ \\x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}=202\cdot 7=1414\ lb.

Add these two equalities and then divide by 11:

x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}=884+1414=2298\ lb,\\ \\\dfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}}{11}=\dfrac{2298}{11}=208\dfrac{10}{11}\ lb.

Answer: the mean weight of the 11-person team is 208\dfrac{10}{11}\ lb.

Please help me with this math question​
shutvik [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

$450×15%= D (downpayment)

$450-D= B (balance)

B÷18= MB (monthly balance)

MB ×12%= I (interest)

MB+I= MI (monthly installment)

(MI×18)+D= Total Paid

...and whomever you're doing the work for, see if they'll give you extra credit for correcting their TWICE misspelled word.

Catch is...YOU have to find it! (:
