Step-by-step explanation:
Did you mean :
f(x) = 5(4 - x)
f(16) = 5(4 - 16)
f(16) = 5(-12)
f(16) = -60
Remark
There is no short way to do this problem and no obvious way to get the answer other that to solve each part.
Solve
A
Multiply by 2
x + 1.6 = 2(x + 0.1) Remove the brackets
x + 1.6 = 2x + 0.1*2
x + 1.6 = 2x + 0.2 Subtract x from both sides
1.6 = x + 0.2 Subtract 0.2 from both sides
1.6 - 0.2 = x
1.4 = x
Circle A
B
Subtract 2x from both sides.
3x - 2x = 1.4
Circle B
C
Remove the brackets.
4x + 6 = 2x - 6 Add 6 to both sides
4x + 12 = 2x Subtract 4x from both sides.
12 = -2x Divide by - 2
12/-2 = x
x = - 6 Don't circle C
D
I'm going to be very scant in my solution of this. You can fill in the steps.
3x = 4.2
x = 4.2/3
x = 1.4
Circle D
Answer:
25.50
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 notebooks $2 each
-4 pencils $1.50 each
-2 packs of markers $3.75 each
5(2)+4(1.50)+2(3.75)
$23.5
23.5 times 8.5/100
1.9975
plus 23.5
25.4975
rounded to 25.50
