For future reference, use a * to show the multiplication sign because in math x is a variable. 7*2 = 9 + x
Now multiply 7*2= 14
14 = 9 + x
Now subtract 9 from both sides to isolate the x
5 = x or x= 5
Answer:
c: add x to each side

Answer:
$90000
Step-by-step explanation:
From the pie chart,
Let the total annual income = $y
The percentage of housing = 28 %
The percentage of clothing = 14 %
The combined percentage of housing and clothing = 28+14 = 42 %
If the amount spent on both housing and clothing combined = $ 37800
Therefore,
y(42/100) = 37800
Solve for y
42y = 37800×100
42y = 3780000
y = 3780000/42
y = $90000
Hence, the total annual income is $90000
6^2/2(3)+4
Follow the order of operations, (GEMDAS) which goes like this:
<em>grouping, exponents, multiplication/divison, addition/subtraction
</em>
First up is our grouping, specifically parentheses. While we do have parentheses in our expression there isn't anything going on <em>inside</em> of them that we'd have to do first. (The 2(3) is another way of writing 2×3.)
Next we have exponents, which would be our 6^2. (6 squared)
When something is squared, that means it is multiplied by itself. 6^2 = 6×6 = 36.
Now our expression is 36/2(3)+4.
Next we need to handle the multiplication and division. (order doesn't matter)
The best way to do this is from left to right. The 36/2 = 18...
Then 18(3) = 54.
If we took 36(3) then divided by 2 we would get the same answer.
However, what you <em>cannot</em> do is multiply the 2(3), simply because the 2 is a denominator of a fraction. If you don't know what this is or why, it's okay--just always do it left to right and you'll never have to worry about it.
Now our expression is 54+4.
Finally, we can handle the addition/subtraction. 54+4 leaves us with 58.
