)*(−160)
x=256
Answer:
x=256
68.32 divided by 2.8 is 24.4. I hope this helps!
#2 is 62,000 because if you subtract 84,500 by 22,500 this will then equal 62,000
#3 then equals 9,000 because 37,100 subtracted by 28,100 equals 9,000.
1/2x + 42 = 4x
-1/2x -1/2x
------------------------
42 = 3.5x
/3.5 /3.5
------------------------
12 = x
the number is 12
explanation: 42 more than 1/2 of a number can be written as 1/2x + 42
four times a number can be written as 4x.
42 more than 1/2 of a number is equal to 4 times a number. So 1/2x + 42 = 4x.
Hope this helps :)
