Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 2 on both sides

7x+2=16

7x=14

Divide by 7 on both sides

x=2

Hope this helps! :)

Answer: x = 2

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for <em>x</em> in the equation you see here, our goal is to get <em>x</em> by itself.

Our first step will be to isolate the

term containing <em>x</em> which in this case is 7x.

To isolate 7x, we have to get rid of the +2 by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation. On the left, +2 and -2 cancel out and we're simply left with 7x. On the right, 16 - 2 simplifies to 14.

So we have 7x = 14.

Now divide both sides by 7 and we find that <em>x = 2</em>.

An engineer performs a flow test of a cooling water system. The test equipment hooks into flow elements in the system. There are
KiRa [710]
Each flow element requires a test gauge ---> 32*80 = $2560

Each flow element needs total of 6 feet of tubing  ----> 32*6 = 192 ft
price per foot = 6/100 = $.06
-----> 192*.06 = $11.52

Each 3-ft length of tubing requires 2 connectors. ----> (192/3)*2 = 128
-----> 128*2.5 = $320

Total Cost = 2560 + 11.52 + 320 = $2891.52

Subtract from budget:
3000 - 2891.52 = $108.48
