To make it easier just assume there is no decimal point then just work out the 32÷4 where we know that 4 goes into 32 8 times so you get 8 remember the decimal point and since it was one decimal place you will push the decimal over to the left of 8 and that is how you get 0.8

So the idea with literal equations is to get one variable in terms of all the rest.  In this equation, we are trying to solve for x in terms of y (meaning that we are trying to get x all by itself with y on the other side of the equal sign).  Whenever you have a single fraction by itself on one side of an equal sign, the first thing that I always do is cross multiply.  This gets rid of the fraction completely and makes everything look a little nicer:

y * (5-4x) = 1 * (2x+3)

Distribute on the left side:

5y-4xy = 2x+3

Move the x's all to the same side.  I'm doing this by subtracting 2x from both sides:

5y-4xy - 2x = 3

For simplicity's sake, move 5y to the right side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides:

-4xy - 2x = 3 - 5y

Factor out the x on the left side:

x (-4y-2) = 3 - 5y

Get the x term by itself on the left side by dividing both sides by -4y-2.

x = (3-5y)/(-4y-2)

 

And there you have it!  I hope that this helped a little.  Good luck!

Answer:

1.\:2^x=64, x=\boxed{6},\\2.\:x=\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^3,x=\boxed{\frac{8}{125}}\\3.\:3\cdot (3^4)=3^x, x=\boxed{5}\\4.\:\frac{16}{25}=x^2,x=\boxed{\frac{4}{5}},

Step-by-step explanation:

1.\\\\2^x=64,\\\log 2^x=\log64,\\x\log 2=\log 64,\\x=\frac{\log 64}{\log 2}=\boxed{6}

2.\\x=\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^3=\frac{2^3}{5^3}=\boxed{\frac{8}{125}}

3. This problem incorporates an exponent property.

Exponent property used: a^b\cdot a^c=a^{(b+c)}, yielding an answer of \boxed{5}

4.\\\\\frac{16}{25}=x^2,\\x=\sqrt{\frac{16}{25}}=\frac{\sqrt{16}}{\sqrt{25}}=\boxed{\frac{4}{5}}

Barbra bought 2 greetings cards at $1.50 each, 3 packages of wrapping paper at $2.29 each and 1 roll of ribbon for $1.45. How mu
koban [17]

Answer:

$11.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Greeting Cards = $1.5 x 2 = $3

Wrapping Paper = $2.29 x 3 =  $6.87

Ribbon = $1.45 x 1 = $1.45

So now we must add the totals to figure out how much money Barbra spent in total.

$3 + $6.87 + $1.45 = $11.32
