How to solve 2x-1/2=3-x

Mathematics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
5 0
To solve for x:
Move all the terms containing "x" to the left side of the equation. Do this by adding x to both sides.

2x+x=3x. The new equation is:
3x-1/2=3

Now, move all terms not containing "x" to the right side of the equation. Do this by adding 1/2 to both sides.
3x=3+1/2 The new equation is:
3x=3 1/2, or 3.5

The final step is to isolate x. To do so, divide each side by 3.
3x/3 = 3 1/2 /3 The new equation is:
x=1 1/6

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: 1.4n represents the cost of n packages of pels.

1.20m represents cost of m pads.

Entire expression 1.4n + 1.20m represents total cost of n packages of pels and m pads.

Meaning of 1.4n  =  cost of n packages of pels.

Meaning of 1.20 m = represents cost of m pads.

where , 1.4 = Cost per package of pels

1.2 =Cost per pad of paper

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cost per package of pels = $1.40

Cost per pad of paper = $1.20

Number of packages of pels bought = n

Number of pads of paper bought = m

So, 1.4n represents the cost of n packages of pels.

1.20m represents cost of m pads.

Entire expression 1.4n + 1.20m represents total cost of n packages of pels and m pads.

Meaning of 1.4n  =  cost of n packages of pels.

Meaning of 1.20 m = represents cost of m pads.

where , 1.4 = Cost per package of pels

1.2 =Cost per pad of paper

kow [346]

If this can be modelled by exponential decay, therefore the function must be in the form of:

A = Ao (1 + r)^t

where A is the final value, Ao is the initial = 15000, r is the rate of decay = -0.0015, t is time = 2010 – 1990 = 20

 

A = 15,000 (1 – 0.0015)^20

A = $14,556.36
