Answer: 5-2x=6-x, x= -1/3
Explanation:
“When I double it and subtract it from five it is the same as subtracting it from six”
So double means multiply by two, and the same as means equal. Use a variable to represent the number.
Therefore your equation is:
5-2x=6-x
So solving the equation would be:
-2x-x = 6-5
-3x = 1
x= -1/3
From looking at this (which kind of made my head spin from all the letters lol) I would say the answer would be A
I could be wrong though! But I strongly believe that it would be a from the math I did.
Answer:
$63.20
Step-by-step explanation:
first we have to find how much the sweater is marked down in money. we do this by converting the percentage to decimal form and multiply by the original price.
79•0.2= 15.8
so the sweater is marked down $15.80. now we subtract that markdown from the original price to find the new price
$79-$15.8= $63.20
hope this helps chu <3
Answer:
6.5 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
At first, Jim was paddling against the current for 3 hours. Then, he paddled for 1 hour with the help of the current.
Let x be Jim's rate without the current and y be the rate of the current:
By solving the linear system, we can find the rate of the current y:
The current has a rate of 6.5 miles per hour.
