Hello there, and thank you for posting your question here on brainly.

Let's see if x = 12 by working it out as in the equation.

2 * (12 + 4) - 10 = 36 - 14

I know we should use pemdas, but I'm going to do the 36 - 14, and then work on the left side.

36 - 14 = 22

Now, let us work on the equation.

2 * (12 + 4) - 10 = 22

Let's do the parenthesis first.

12 + 4 ===> 16

Now we have the equation

2 * 16 - 10 = 22

Multiply 16 by 2.

16 * 2 ===> 32

Almost done, we now have the equation

32 - 10 = 22

Do the subtraction.

32 - 10 ===> 22

22 = 22

Yes, x = 12

Hope this helped!! ☺♥

In order to see the probaability of this we need to do an easy calculation here:
If X is the price for the policy, then we proceed like this:

0.982x = 0.0275*31,000

x = 0.0275*31,000/0.982

Solve for b −3b+2.5=4 Two step equations with fractions and decimals

DIA [1.3K]

−3b+2.5=4

Subtract 2.5 from both sides.

−3b+2.5−2.5=4−2.5

−3b=1.5

Divide both sides by -3.

−3b/−3 = 1.5/−3

b=−0.5

Find the width of a rectangle 25 feet and the perimeter is 80

lukranit [14]

$\huge\underline{\red{A}\blue{n}\pink{s}\purple{w}\orange{e}\green{r} -}$

Given - a rectangle with length 25 feet and perimeter 80 feet

To calculate - width of the rectangle

We know that ,

$\bold{Perimeter \: of \: rectangle = 2(l + b)} \\$

where b = width / breadth of rectangle

‎ ‎ ‎

substituting the values in the formula stated above ,

$\bold{80 = 2(25 + b)} \\ \\\bold{ \implies \: 25 + b = \cancel \frac{80}{2} } \\ \\ \bold{\implies \: 25 + b = 40 }\\ \\ \bold{\implies \: b = 40 - 25 }\\ \\\bold{ \implies \: b = 15 \: feet}$
