Answer:
x = -7
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
2.5x + 10 = x - 0.5
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Subtract <em>x </em>on both sides: 1.5x + 10 = -0.5
- Subtract 10 on both sides: 1.5x = -10.5
- Divide both sides by 1.5: x = -7
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 2.5(-7) + 10 = -7 - 0.5
- Multiply: -17.5 + 10 = -7 - 0.5
- Add/Subtract: -7.5 = -7.5
And we have our answer!
Number of 1/2-inch cubes length-wise = 8 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 17
Number of 1/2-inch cubes width-wise = 5 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 11
Number of 1/2-inch cubes height-wise = 2 1/2 ÷ 1/2 = 5
Number of 1/2-inch cubes = 17 x 11 x 5 = 935
------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 935 1/2-inch cubes are needed.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
5 - 3[ 2 + (-5)] 2 - 8
Subtract 5 from 2 to get −3.
5 - 3 (-3) × 2 - 8
Multiply 3 and −3 to get −9.
5 - (-9 × 2) - 8
Multiply −9 and 2 to get −18.
5 - (-18) - 8
The opposite of −18 is 18.
5 + 18 - 8
Add 5 and 18 to get 23.
23 - 8
Subtract 8 from 23 to get 15.
