Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the initial weight of Porky the pig.
Porky the pig weighs 1,125 lbs less than Kobe the Cow. This means that the initial weight of Kobe the cow is
x + 1125
After each gains 50lbs. Kobe the Cow will weigh ten times as much as porky the pig. This means that
(x + 1125) + 50 = 10(x + 50)
x + 1125 + 50 = 10x + 500
10x - x = 1125 + 50 - 500
9x = 675
x = 675/9
x = 75
Porky's current weight is
75 + 50 = 125 lbs
Kobe's current weight is
(75 + 1125) + 50
= 1250 lbs
Answer:
we need to find out if the following get x = 2 as a final product
-2(x-4) = 4
-2x + 8 = 4
-2x = -4
x = 2
so it is a solution
26/x = 13
26 = 13x
x = 26/13
x = 2
so it’s a solution
-3.8x = -7.4
x = 7.4/3.8 ≠ 2
you get ≈ 1.95
so it’s not a solution
4(x-1) - 3(x-2) = -8
4x - 4 - 3x + 6 = -8
x + 2 = -8
x = -10
so it’s not a solution
7.5% of 160.
12 / 160 = 0.075
Move decimal 2 places to the left to convert it to a percent, or multiple by 100.
0.075 * 100 = 7.5
7.5% is your answer.
