Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
25 > 2x + 8 - 66
first simplify all numbers
25 > 2x + (8 - 66)
25 > 2x - 58
Then add 58 to both sides
25 (+58) > 2x - 58 (+58)
83 > 2x
Finally divide 2 from both sides to isolate the x
83/2 > 2x/2
41.5 > x
hope this helps
Lets work backwards, he had $5 after it all, and spent $1.25 on a snack, so we add that to the remainder, which is $6.25. then he spent half of that on whatever stuff he likes, so add $6.25 and $6.25, which is $12.50
Answer:
-----×1/72
Step-by-step explanation:
The <em>order of operations</em> says do these operations in order left to right. Please note that ÷ means the same as / unless you define it otherwise in your problem statement.
If you intend the ÷ symbol to be used to indicate everything to its left is divided by everything to its right, it is appropriate to use parentheses for that grouping, as in ...
(-----×1/4)÷(6×3/9) = (-----×1/4)÷2 = -----×1/8
_____
Here, we're going to evaluate what you have written according to the usual rules as described above.
(-----×1/4)÷6×3/9 = -----×1/24×3/9 = -----×(3/24)/9
= -----×1/8/9
= -----×1/72
_____
<em>Comment on the arithmetic</em>
Fractions are multiplied and divided in the usual way:
a/b×c = (a×c)/b
a/b/c = (a/b) × (1/c) = a/(b×c)
___
<em>Comment on fractions and parentheses</em>
Please note that parentheses are required on any numerator or denominator that consists of anything other than a single number or variable. (The exception is the case where the numerator is a product, because a·b/c = (a·b)/c with or without the parentheses.)
I don't quite understand the ten strategy, or what EXACTLY you're asking. But, what you can do is when you add a one digit number plus a nine, just change the nine to a ten and subtract one. It is very easy. So, 7+10 equals 17, subtract one and you get 16 which is 7+9. It is always one less than anything plus 10.
