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:
I think the answer is A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Original shape: 7 x 5 x 225 x 6 x 12 x 45 = 25,515,000
A: 9 x 5 x 225 x 6 x 35 x 12 = 25,515,000
B: 14 x 10 x 255 x 12 x 24 x 45 = 462,672,000
C: 9 x 7 x 225 x 8 x 15 x 45 = 76,545,000
D: 8 x 4 x 225 x 6 x 12 x 35 = 18,144,000
This is probably not the way you would solve it but this is how I did it. Basically I multiplied all the numbers in each shape together.

Answer:
1) x=0.465
2) option A.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The given equation is:
We rewrite this as logarithm to get:
The change of base formula is:
We apply the change of base formula on the RHS to get:
Group similar terms:
2)
From the graph, the logarithmic function approaches negative infinity as x approaches -6.
Therefore the vertical asymptote is x=-6
The graph touches the x-axis at x=-5, therefore the x-intercept is x=-5.
The correct answer is A.
Umm what do you mean can you explain more of it 2 me plz<span />
She is incorrect cause if we take the number 20 and take 25% of it it equals 5 so now 20 is only 15. They if we take 75% away from 20 is equals 15 so then we only have 5 from 20 left. Therefore she’s incorrect because 75% leaves 5/20 and 25% leaves 15/20. Hope that makes sense.
