Combining the operations
The allowed operations are:
Add the same amount to both sides (either x's or ones)
Subtract the same amount from both sides (either x's or ones)
Multiply both sides by the same number (but not by zero)
Divide both sides by the same number (but not by zero)
(There are others, too, but they are not needed in simple equations.)
The goal is to FIRST add and subtract until we have ONLY x's (blocks) on one side and ONLY ones (circles) on the other. Then, if you have more than one block, you need to divide so as to arrive to the situation with only one block on the one side, which is the solved equation!
The rules of exponents tell you to add exponents in the numerator and subtract those in the denominator. A power of a power causes the exponent to be multiplied.
Answer:
4(2x - 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite "20" as 4 * 5
Rewrite "8" as 4 * 2
=4 * 2x - 4 * 5
Factor out common term "4"
=4(2x - 5) <------ Your answer.
Answer:
$522.99
Step-by-step explanation:
Fv = total amount plus interest over the given period of time
P = Principal amount deposited i.e $500
r = interest given 1.5% i.e 0.015
n = period of time the principal remains deposited. In this case annually i.e 12 months
FV = $522.99
Um I have no idea what this is but good luck
