Consider the given equation:

2.5(10-x)+10 = 72 -1.5(5x+12)

Applying distributive property, a(b+c) = ab + ac

(2.5 \times 10) + (2.5 \times -x) + 10 = 72 - (1.5 \times 5x) + (-1.5 \times 12)

25 - 2.5x + 10 = 72 - 7.5x - 18

Adding and subtracting like terms, we get

35-2.5x = 54 - 7.5x

35 - 54 = 2.5x -7.5x

-19 = -5x

x = \frac{19}{5}

x = 3.8

So, the value of 'x' in the given equation is 3.8

Juan got on an elevator at the middle floor of a building, went up 4 floors, down 3 floors, up one floor, down 9 floors, where h
xenn [34]
There are 14 floors in the building, because since Juan went up 4 floors, down 3 floors, and up one floor; so we know that he is 2 floors above from where he originally started. Once he went down 9 floors he passed the starting point and went to the bottom of the building. So, the middle must have been the 7th floor. Once I knew that I multiplied 7*2 and it got me 14. So in total there are 14 floors. I hope this helped ^^
