A party store uses 20% of a tank of helium a day and fills 80 balloons. Each balloon takes 0.5 cubic feet of helium to fill. How
Vesnalui [34]
First, multiply the number of feet it takes for one balloon by the number of balloons filled daily.
0.5 * 80 = 40

So, 40 cubic feet is 20% of one tank. Now, unless you remember how to find what 40 is 20% of, simply play around with some numbers on your calculator until you find that 200 * 0.20 = 40. I would love to explain how to find that part with an actual formula, but I don't remember how. :/ Hope this helped.

Solve for x: −2(x + 3) = −2(x + 1) − 4. (1 point)
NeTakaya

Answer:

Hey there!

Let's solve our equation below.

-2(x+3)= -2(x+1)-4

Let's distribute the parentheses.

-2x-6=-2x-2-4

We combine like terms.

-2x-6=-2x-6

We add 6 to both sides.

-2x=-2x

We divide both sides by -2

x=x

If, when solving an equation, you get one number or variable that equals itself, there are infinitely many solutions.

We can plug anything into this equation and it will always equal to same things, since x is just equal to whatever x value you want.

Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.

I hope this helps!
