Answer:

x = 11/5

____________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

We are solving for x:

3(4 – 2x) = -x + 1

Distribute the 3 to the 4 and -2x

12 - 6x = -x + 1

Add x to both sides to get the x's together

12 - 5x = 1

Subtract both sides by 12

-5x = -11

Divide by -5. Two negatives turn into a positive.

x = 11/5

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

68469.44

Multiplication is commutative so can be multiplied anyway

(2.0× 109)(3.02×104)

2.0 can be written as ( 20÷ 10) and 3.02 can be written as (302÷ 100)

(2× 109){(3.02÷ 100)× 104]

(218)(7852÷ 25)
