Simplifying
12x + 10 + 3 + 8x = 0
Reorder the terms:
10 + 3 + 12x + 8x = 0
Combine like terms: 10 + 3 = 13
13 + 12x + 8x = 0
Combine like terms: 12x + 8x = 20x
13 + 20x = 0
Solving
13 + 20x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-13' to each side of the equation.
13 + -13 + 20x = 0 + -13
Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0
0 + 20x = 0 + -13
20x = 0 + -13
Combine like terms: 0 + -13 = -13
20x = -13
Divide each side by '20'.
x = -0.65
Simplifying
x = -0.65
Answer:
Reduced fraction: 14/25
Step-by-step explanation:
To write 0.56 in terms of fractions we need to multiply and divide the number by 100:
(0.56 * 100)/100 = 56/100. Then we simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by the common factor 2 as many times as possible:
56/100 = 28/50 = 14/25
The fraction 14/25 cannot be more simplified
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Number of dimes = d, each d = 10 c
- Number of quarters = q, each q = 25 c
- Total = $2 = 200 c
<u>Equations according the given:</u>
<u>Solve for q by substitution:</u>
- 10(q + 6) + 25q = 200
- 10q + 60 + 25q = 200
- 35q = 140
- q = 140/35
- q = 4
<u>Find the value of d:</u>
Nathaniel has 10 dimes and 4 quarters
