In your own words, explain why solving 4=2x uses the Division Property of Equality. Provide an example with your explanation.
balandron [24]
Solving 4=2x is using the division property because in order to get the last portion of that answer u have to divide both sides by 2x to get x by itself
For example
4=2x to get x by itself you have to divide both sides by 2x
And your final answer would be
x is equal to 2 (x=2)

The length of a rectangle is 5 centimeters less than twice it’s width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 80 cm. What are the dim
algol [13]
<h3><u>The length is equal to 25.</u></h3><h3><u>The width is equal to 15.</u></h3>

l = 2w - 5

2l + 2w = 80

We have a value for l, so we can plug it into the second equation to solve for w.

2(2w - 5) + 2w = 80

Distributive property.

4w - 10 + 2w = 80

Combine like terms.

6w - 10 = 80

Add 10 to both sides.

6w = 90

Divide both sides by 6.

w = 15

Now that we have a value for w, we can plug it into the original equation to solve for l.

l = 2(15) - 5

l = 30 - 5

l = 25

You deposit $2200 into three separate bank accounts that each pay 3% annual interest. How much interest does each account earn a
Keith_Richards [23]
This can be solve using the formula:
F = P ( 1 + i)^n
where F is the money after n years
P is the initial amount of money
i is the annual interest rate
n is the time in years
since you deposit in 3 accounts P = 2200/3
F = ( 2200 / 3) ( 1 + 0.03)^6
F = $ 875.64 is the money each account earned after 6 years

Solve for X and y PLEASE GIVE FULL EXPLANATION HOW YOU GOT IT
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

(1, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

we isolate y in the first equation

2x+y=1

-2x.  -2x

y=1-2x

and now we fill y into second equation

4x-2(1-2x)=6

4x-2+4x=6

8x-2=6

   +2 +2

8x=8

/8 /8

x=1

and now to find y we insert x

2(1)+y=1

2+y=1

-2.   -2

y= -1

hopes this helps
