Answer:
A. -(3/10)x + 1 = 10
B. x = -30
Step-by-step explanation:
A. first, we know that we are multiplying a number (x) by -3/10 because that's the fraction of the number we are taking. Then, we add one to that number. After doing so, we are told that we get 10. Thus, -(3/10)x + 1 = 10
B. in solving this, first we subtract 1 from both sides, to get
-(3/10)x = 9
then, we divide both sides by -3/10 to get
x = -30
