erik [133]4 years ago

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

-2(x + 5) = -2

-2(x) -2(5) = -2

Multiply:

-2(x) -2(5) = -2

-2x - 10 = -2

Add 10 on both sides:

-2x - 10 = -2

      +10    +10

-2x = 8

Divide by -2 on both sides:

-2x = 8

/-2     /-2

x = -4

If you pay for $25.00 for purchase which includes 11% sales tax. how much is the sales tax?
Delvig [45]
Since it includes 11% sales tax, this means that (purchase)+11% of (purchase)=25.00. Since 11% = 0.11 by multiplying it by 1/100, we have 1*purchase+0.11*purchase=1.11*purchase=25.00. Dividing both sides by 1.11, we get around 22.73 as the original purchase. This means that the difference between the purchase price and the total price is the sales tax, which is around 2.27 dollars.

rjkz [21]
Well see here that it practically gives us the answer. The submarine rises 4.3 meter each minute of the first 15 minutes. Multiplying these two given numbers you get 64.5  . Great we're halfway through. Now onto the second equation. 5.2 times 12 . easy right? The answer round to 62.4 . Now all that's left to do is add the two together. After the 27 minutes the submarine should be at an elevation of 126.9 feet. rounding to 127 if you teacher requires you to round the numbers.
