Answer:

x = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2.5x - 10 = 40

Collect like terms and simplify

- 2.5x = 40 + 10 \\  - 2.5x = 50

Divide both sides of the equation by -2.5

\frac{ - 2.5x}{ - 2.5}  =  \frac{50}{ - 2.5}

Simplify

x =  - 20

The length of a classroom is 34 feet. What is this measurement in yards and feet? A 17 yards 0 feet B 11 yards 1 foot C 8 yards
laila [671]
1 yard = 3 feet

Divide 34 by 3, you should get 11 and 1/3.
So the classroom is 11 1/3 yards long, but 1/3 of a yard just so happens to be one foot, as 3 feet is 1 yard.

That means that the classroom is 11 yards and 1 foot long, or answer choice B.

Hope this helps! :)
