Because without place value you might put the decimal in the wrong place and that will effect the answer big time.
Answer: x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
1 - 3x = 3x + 1
then add 3x on both sides
1 = 6x + 1
then subtract 1 on both sides
0 = 6x
then divide by 6 on both sides
0 = x
so x = 0

Answer:
3 bags per weekday
Step-by-step explanation:
Total bags of leaves at the end of the week = 26 bags
Bags of leaves she fills over the weekend = 11 bags
Bags of leaves she fills during weekdays = x bags
Total bags of leaves at the end of the week = Bags of leaves she fills over the weekend + Bags of leaves she fills during weekdays
26 = 11 + x
Subtract 11 from both sides
26 - 11 = 11 - 11 + x
15 = x
x = 15 bags
If she fills the same number of bags with leaves on each of the 5 weekdays.
how many bags she filled each weekday.
Bags she filled each weekday = Total Bags of leaves she fills during weekdays / 5 weekdays
= 15 bags / 5 weekdays
= 3 bags per weekday
