Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4 + x) = 34
4 + x = 34/2 = 17
x = 17 - 4 = 13
Answer:
It's a proportion.
2 is to x as 15 is to 9, or 2/x = 15/9.
Multiply the means and extremes
15x = 18
divide both sides by 15 to get x by itself.
x = 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: 2/5 + p = 4/5 + 3/5p
Simplify Both Sides:
p + 2/5 = 3/5p + 4/5
Subtract 3/5p from both sides:
p + 2/5 - 3/5p = 3/5p + 4/5 - 3/5p
2/5p + 2/5 = 4/5
Subtract 2/5 from both sides:
2/5p + 2/5 - 2/5 = 4/5 - 2/5
2/5p = 2/5
Multiply both sides by 5/2
(5/2) * (2/5p) = (5/2) * (2/5)
p = 1
Answer: p = 1
