Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

Assuming that (2x2) means 2 being multiplied by 2. Then we can use the following process to solve the equation given to us in the question.

$2*2-5x+1 = 3$ .... First, multiply both 2's together

$4-5x+1 = 3$ ....combine 4 and 1

$5-5x = 3$....subtract 5 on both sides

$-5x= -2$ ... divide both sides by -5

$x = 0.4$

After following the process and solving for x we can see that the value of x is 0.4
