  • Place value chart: 7 x 2.6 = 18 ones plus 2 tenths = 18.2
  • Area model: 7 x 2.6 = 14 + 4.2 = 18.2
<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Miles incorrectly gave the product of 7 x 2.6 as 14.42.

Let us use a place value chart or an area model to help Miles understand his mistake.

See the attached picture for the place value chart and area model.

<u>Place Value Chart</u>

7 x 2.6 is the same as 7 multiplied by 2 ones and 6 tenths. In other words, we see clearly that 7 multiplied by 2 plus 7 multiplied by 0.6.

  • We prepare two columns of ones and tenths separated by dots.
  • In the ones column, place two dots on each row until it reaches 7 rows. This means 7 times 2 equal to 14 dots.
  • In the tenth column, place six dots on each row until it reaches 7 rows. This means 7 times 0.6.
  • In the tenth column, every time it reaches 10 dots, it becomes 1 ones which are added to the dots in the ones column.
  • There are 4 additional dots in the ones column as a result of each 10 dots in the tenth column. We add 14 dots with 4 dots and the result is 18 ones.
  • The remaining dots in the tenth column will be added with all the dots in the ones column. There are two dots left so that it becomes 2 tenths.

\boxed{ \ 7 \times 2.6 = 18 \ ones \ plus \ 2 \ tenths = \boxed{ \ 18.2 \ } \ }

<u>Area Model</u>

7 x 2.6 is the same as 7 multiplied by 2 ones and 6 tenths.

  • Let 2 ones and 6 tenths as the length and 7 as the width of a rectangle.
  • 7 x 2 ones = 14 ones or 14.
  • 7 x 6 tenths = 42 tenths or 4.2.
  • The area of the rectangle is 14 ones plus 42 tenths, or 14 plus 4.2.

\boxed{ \ 7 \times 2.6 = 14 + 4.2 = \boxed{ \ 18.2 \ } \ }

Last year, Maria had $10,000 to invest. She invested some of it in an account that paid 6% simple interest per year, and she inv
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

$3,000 invested at 6%

$7,000 invested at 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Maria had total $10,000 to invest.

Let x be the amount that Maria invested initially at 6% interest rate.

0.06x

Then she invested the remaining amount at 10% interest rate.

0.10(10,000 - x)

She received a total of $880 in interest.

0.06x + 0.10(10,000 - x) = 880

0.06x + 1000 - 0.10x = 880

-0.04x = 880 - 1000

-0.04x = -120

0.04x = 120

x = 120/0.04

x = $3,000

This is the amount that Maria invested initially at 6% interest rate.

The remaining amount is

10,000 - 3,000

$7,000

This is the remaining amount that she invested at 10% interest rate.

Answer:

11. x=15 , 12. x=-16, 13 x is greater than or equal to 15 , 14 x=-3 , 15 x=-3, 16 x=15/2 , 17 x is greater than is equal to -4, 18: x is greater than -11

Step-by-step explanation:

11. 4x+15=75

subtract 15

4x=60

divide

x=15

12. 2x = -32 (subtract 13 from each side)

divide

x=-16

13. multiply each side by

-3/2

x is greater than or equal to 15

14. -3x -18 + 5 = -4

isolate x

-3x=9

x=-3

15. -5x-30 +5=-10

isolate x

-5x = 15

x= -3

16. 2x + 16 = 6x - 14

isolate x

4x = 30

x= 15/2

17 isolate x

x is greater than is equal to -4

18. isolate x

x is greater than -11

Three brothers Charlie Robert and Nicholas have 21 video games Charlie has twice as many games as Robert. Robert has 5 fewer gam
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The equation would be 4x-15=21.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total Number of Video games = 21

Let the number of video game Nicholas has be 'x'.

Now Given:

Robert has 5 fewer games than Nicholas.

so we can say that;

number of video game Robert has = x-5

Also Given:

Charlie has twice as many games as Robert.

so we can say that;

number of video game Charlie has = 2(x-5)=2x-10

we need to write the equation.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

Total Number of Video games is equal to sum of number of video game Nicholas has, number of video game Robert has and number of video game Charlie has.

framing the equation we get;

x+x-5+2x-10=21\\\\4x-15=21

Hence The equation would be 4x-15=21.

On Solving we get;

Adding both side by 15 we get;

4x-15+15=21+15\\\\4x=36

Dividing both side by 4 we get;

\frac{3x}{4}=\frac{36}{4}\\\\x=9

Hence Nicholas has = 9 video games

Robert has = x-5= 9-5=4 video games

Charlie has = 2x-10 = 2\times9-10=18-10=8 video games
