-2 = 5x +3
5x = 3 + 2
5x = 5
x = 1
Answer:
7. 20 + 5 + 3/10 + 6/100
8. 7 + 4/10 + 2/100 + 5/1000
Step-by-step explanation:
We are writing two numbers in expanded form, to help, we can use the guide above both numbers. Expanded form is all about breaking apart a number by place value and putting them in an additional sequence.
Let's look at 7, 25.36.
There are the tens, ones, tenths, and hundredths place being used, therefore :
20 + 5 + 3/10 + 6/100
We can do the same for 8, 7.425.
There are ones, tenths, hundredths, and thousandths being used, therefore :
7 + 4/10 + 2/100 + 5/1000
(x - 8)² = 144
Take square root of both sides
(x - 8) = √144
x - 8 = 12
x = 12 + 8
x = 20
