The answer to the question is d
1 and 1/2x+3/4x=5/8
combine x's
1 and 1/2x=4/4x+2/4x=6/4x
6/4x+3/4x=5/8=9/4x
9/4x=5/8
multiply both sides by 8
18x=5
x=5/18
x=5/18 or aprox 0.277777777777
I'm not sure if this is correct but you would put it into an equation while you solve for X. so 0.75x=150 or equivalently would be like (3/4)x=150 Then after that you would divide both sides by 0.75 or 3/4
To the hundredth is 2 numbers after the decimal so since the third number is a 1 and its less than 5 it does no damage to the 9 therefore you just take away the one and you have your rounded answer, 12.79
Answer:
This equation is equivalent to
