Question

VERY EASY QUESTION. Write out this equation: ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 8

Answer 1

Answer:

10  ×   ( ? + ? )

half a number:  

→10×(x2+?) and 6: → 10 × ( x 2 + 6 )

is 8 : → 10 × ( x 2 + 6 ) = 8

10 ( x 2 + 6 ) = 8

Multiply out the bracket

5 x + 60 = 8 Subtract 60 from both sides 5 x = 58

Divide both sides by 5 x = 58 5

10 times:  Subtract 60 from both sides

5 x = 58 Divide both sides by 5 x = 58 5

Step-by-step explanation:

but i'm confused- if you said "VERY EASY QUESTION", why couldn't you answer it since you said "very easy"- nvm-
