Let the number be n

the first half (2 less than 3 lots of a number) is in brackets.
3 lots of a number is 3 x the number and 2 less than it is subtracting 2 from the product.
So 3n-2.
That whole number is doubled so the 2 is left outside the brackets so that it applies to everything inside.
2(3n-2) = 5

im not sure if you were asked to find the number but if you are then you must work in opposite operations.

First, divide both sides by 2--
3n-2 = 2.5
then add the 2 to both sides
3n = 4.5
divide both by 3 and tha'ts the answer for n but its a decimal so i doubt its asking for that

Find the sale price to the nearest cent .. $40 sweater; 33%discount​
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

$26.80

Step-by-step explanation:

(I don't know exactly how other people were taught to do percentages, but this is how I was taught and I find it the easiest for me.)

You are going to subtract your percentage number by 100.

100 - 33 = 67

This will give you your multiplier so you can then get your answer but you have to turn it into a decimal.

0.67 x 40 = 26.80

Answer:

25.6

Explanation:

t = 2 seconds

h = 8 + 40.8(2) - 16(2)^2

Solve for h by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.

h = 25.6
