To calculate the price per uniform you have to divide $3000 by 40 uniforms, which equals $75. When some of the uniforms were returned the department received $40 per uniform. To calculate the difference you subtract $40 from $75, which equals $35.
Answer: X = 2.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step should be to isolate x or get x alone. This means we should get rid of the divided by 2 on the left by multiplying both sides by 2. This would get us to 2 * X/2 = 1.2 * 2. The multiplying X/2 would simplify to just X, and the 1.2 * 2 = 2.4. Therefore the final equation would become X = 2.4.
To check, you would plug in 2.4 into where X is in X/2 = 1.2. Since 2.4/2 = 1.2, we know that X = 1.2 from checking.
If the distance is 1.5 from -2, then it could be 1.5 less than -2 or 1.5 more than -2, so we know that we will have two points on the number line.
Let’s first find 1.5 less than -2
We will subtract 1.5 from -2
-2-1.5 = -3.5
Our first value of n will be -3.5
Next let’s find 1.5 more than -2
We will add 1.5 to -2
-2+1.5 = -0.5
Our second value of n will be -0.5
Our answers will be -3.5 and -0.5
