Hi there!
Answer:
<u><em>=195x and x=195</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac
Multiply by the numbers.
39*5=195
195/5=39
195/39=5
5*39=195
=195x and x=195
Hope this helps!

Answer:
168 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
5/7x+40+0.75x−118=x
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5/7x+40+0.75x−118=x
5/7x+40+0.75x+−118=x
(5/7x+0.75x)+(40+−118)=x(Combine Like Terms)
1.464286x+−78=x
1.464286x−78=x
Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.
1.464286x−78−x=x−x
0.464286x−78=0
Step 3: Add 78 to both sides.
0.464286x−78+78=0+78
0.464286x=78
Step 4: Divide both sides by 0.464286.
0.464286x/0.464286=78/0.464286
x=168
It most common to round to the hundredths place, this is two spaces after the decimal.
So look two spaces right - 0.17. If the third digit (in this case 6) is higher than 5 you round the number up if its not, keep it the same.
"6" is greater than five, so round it to about (or approximately) 0.18.
<span>Let the price (before tax) be x.
The tax is 7% of x, so it is 0.07x.
The price plus the tax add up to $45.
x + 0.07x = 45</span>
