Answer:
- Plan: separate the variable term from the constant term; divide by the coefficient of the variable.
- Steps: add 4 to both sides; collect terms; divide both sides by 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to look a the equation to see where the variable is in relation to the equal sign, and whether there are any constants on that same side of the equal sign.
Here, the variable terms are on the left, and there is a constant there, as well. The plan for solving the equation is to eliminate the constant that is on the same side of the equation as the variable, then divide by the coefficient of the variable. To find that coefficient, we need to collect terms. In summary, the plan is to ...
- add 4 to both sides of the equation
- collect terms
- divide by the coefficient of the variable (3)
Executing that plan, the steps are ...
-2x -4 +5x +4 = 8 +4 . . . . add 4
3x = 12 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
x = 4 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
C. $122.10
20 first hour
20+0.1*20 = 22 second hour
22+0.1*22 = 24.2 third hour
24.2+0.1*24.2 = 26.62 fourth hour
26.62+0.1*26.62 = 29.282 fifth hour
Total=$122.10
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
OMG! Don't do that! I am so sorry this is happening to you. Look I don't know how to comfort you. IF he keeps doing this tell your mom or litterally call 911. If he did it just on that day then try confronting him on it. And ask him why he did that! Don't self-harm you deserve so much more than that! You are awesome!
Answer:
q = -13.2
Step-by-step explanation:
9.7q = 9.1q - 7.92
Subtract 9.1q from both sides.
0.6q = -7.92
Divide both sides by 0.6
q = -13.2
Double check your work.
9.7(-13.2) = 9.1(-13.2) - 7.92
-128.04 = -120.12 - 7.92
-128.04 = -128.04
