What is the answer to 5x-2=8

2 answers:

5 0

1. You need to get 5x on one side all by itself. So, you need to add 2 to the other side to undo the subtraction

$5x = 8 + 2$

$5x = 10$

2. Divide both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{10}{5}$

$x = 2$

Solve for L:<br> P=2L+2W

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

$L=\frac{1}{2}P-W$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for L.

$P=2L+2W$

Step 1: Flip the equation.

$2L+2W=P$

Step 2: Add $-2W$ to both sides.

$2L+2W+-2W=P+-2W$

$2L=P-2W$

Step 3: Divide both sides by $2$ .

$\frac{2L}{2}=\frac{P-2W}{2}$

$L=\frac{1}{2}P-W$

Answer:

$L=\frac{1}{2}P-W$

Order these numbers from least to greatest.<br> 2.5, 2.304, 3.21, 2.34

AysviL [449]

Answer:

2.304, 2.34, 2.5, 3.21

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Look at the digit in the ones place. See how they are all 2s except for one 3? Well, now we know the one with the 3 must be the greatest, since 3>2.

2. Next, look at the digit in the tenths place. We have a 3, 3, and a 5. Since 5 > 3, we know thar 2.5 is the second greatest.

3. Last, look at the hundreths place. We have a 0 and a 4. Since 4 > 0, that means 2.34 is the third greatest.

4. Since this is from least to greatest, put 2.304 first and the others as follows in the answer. Hope this helps.
