Answer:
A.) x / 3 = 12 ----> x = 12(3) ----><em> </em><em>x = 36</em>
B.) 2x + 3 = 20 ----> 2x = 17 ----> x = 17/2
C.) 4/3x = 10/3 ----> x = 10/3 x 3/4 ----> x = 30/12 = 5/2
D.) -4x = -24 ----> x = -24/-4 ----> x = 6
E.) 2(x-4) = 10 ----> 2x - 8 = 10 ----> 2x = 18 ----> x = 9
F.) -0.5x + 1.1 = -2.9 ----> -0.5x = -4 ---> x = -4 / -0.5 ----> x = 8
Use the equation .8x + x = 252
x is the number, and .8 is the decimal equivalent of 80%.
1.8x = 252
x = 140
