Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
5x = 2
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Divide 5 on both sides: x = 2/5
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5(2/5) = 2
- Multiply: 2 = 2
Here we see that 2 does indeed equal 2.
∴ x = 2/5 is the solution to the equation.
$21,072 is the answer since you the original price is 43,900 and it has decreased 48% therefore using .48 to multiply with 43,900 to find the value after 3 years
<span>(14+x)^2= 25^2 +x^2
14^2 + 28x + x^2 = </span><span>25^2 +x^2
28x = 25^2 - 14^2
28x = 625 - 196
28x = 429
x = 15.32</span>
Divide the number of people by the number of plates per pack:
138 / 12 = 11.5
He need to buy 12 packs of plates to have enough.
By the seventh week you both will have $148. Hope this helps!
