Answer:
When you barter, you must trade it for something else in order to buy something.
Step-by-step explanation:
400 reduced by 4 times my age is 116...
400 - 4x = 116
-4x = 116 - 400
-4x = - 284
x = -284/-4
x = 71 <===
Answer:
Josh sold all of his collectable baseball cards (n), for $2 each. After selling them all he counted his money and he had $18. How many baseball cards did Josh sell?
Solve the equation
So first we subtract 8 from both sides because we apply the inverse operation.
-2x+8=-16
-8 -8
Now we apply it and re write the equation
-2x=-24
Now the inverse operation for multiplication is division, so we apply it.
-2x=-24
------------
-2 -2
We are left with x=8
So our final answer is x=8
Check our work
-2(8)+8=-16
CORRECT ANSWER. :)
Step one: set the base of each term to be the same (10)
(10ˣ)(10²)²ˣ = (10³)⁵
(10ˣ) (10⁴ˣ)= (10¹⁵)
10⁵ˣ = 10¹⁵
Because the indices are the same we can equate the two.
5x = 15
x = 3
Check 10⁵ˣ³ = 10¹⁵ 10¹⁵=10¹⁵
