Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

20x + x - 2 = 4

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. <u>Combine like terms:</u> 21x - 2 = 4
  2. <u>Add 2 to both sides:</u> 21x = 6
  3. <u>Divide both sides by 21:</u> x = 6/21
  4. <u>Simplify:</u> x = 2/7

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

20(2/7) + 2/7 - 2 = 4

40/7 + 2/7 - 2 = 4

42/7 - 2 = 4

6 - 2 = 4

4 = 4

Answer:

x = 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Collect like terms:

20x + x = 21x ----> 21x - 2= 4

Move the constant to the right hand side and change the sign of the constant:

21x = 4 + 2

Calculate:

21x = 4 + 2 ---> 21x = 6

Divide both sides by 21:

21/21 and 6/21 = 2/7

Solution:

x = 2/7 or x= 0.285714

5,286÷3 how many digits will the classroom number have
docker41 [41]
<span>5,286÷3 how many digits will the classroom number have
Notice that we have 4 digits as dividend with a place value of thousands as the highest and to be divided with our divisor that have only 1 digit with a place value of ones.
Now, let’s see how many digit will our quotient have:
=> 5 286 / 3
=> 1 762 is the quotient, it has still 4 digit with a place value of thousands.
To check simply multiply our quotient and divisor.</span>
