Answer: To clear an equation of decimals, multiply each term on both sides by the power of ten that will make all the decimals whole numbers. In our example above, if we multiply .25 by 100, we will get 25, a whole number. Since each decimal only goes to the hundredths place, 100 will work for all three terms.
So let's multiply each term by 100 to clear the decimals:
(100)0.25x + (100)0.35 = (100)(-0.29)
25x + 35 = -29
Now we can solve the equation as normal:
25x + 35 - 35 = -29 - 35
25x = -64
x = -2.56 Since the original was in decimal form, the answer should most likely also be in decimal form.
Let's look at one more:
1.75x + 4 = 6.2
We have to think a little more carefully about what multiple of ten to use here. 6.2 only needs to be multiplied by 10, but 1.25 needs 100, so we will multiply every term by 100. Don't forget to multiply the 4 by 100 as well.
(100)(1.75x) + (100)(4) = (100)(6.2)
175x + 400 = 620
We had to be extra careful as we multiplied by 100. Now we can solve the equation as normal:
175x + 400 - 400 = 620 - 400
175x = 220
x = 1.26

Answer:
PS=
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : PQRS is a trapezoid on a coordinate plane P(7,4) Q(10,4) R(13,-1) S(8,-1).
To find:: Length of the side PS
Solution : Using the distance formula, we can find the length of the side PS, therefore
PS=
PS=
PS=
PS=
PS=
which is the required length of the side PS.
Solutions
To solve the problem the first step is to m<span>ultiply the whole number by the fraction's denominator (4 x 3).Add the numerator (2) to the product.
4 * 3 = 12
12 + 2 = 14
= 14/3 </span>
X = 3 that is you x intercept
y = 2 that is your y intercept
