Answer:
x =
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
First, combine like terms. Like terms are terms with the same amount of the same variable.
(2x + 3x) - 7 = 42
5x - 7 = 42
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:
Parenthesis
Exponents (& roots)
Multiplications
Divisions
Additions
Subtractions
~
First, add 7 to both sides of the equation:
5x - 7 (+ 7) = 42 (+ 7)
5x = 42 + 7
5x = 49
Next, divide 5 from both sides of the equation:
(5x)/5 = (49)/5
x = 49/5
x = 9.8
Answer:
$954.78
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it increases by 8.5%, all you have to do is multiply 879.98 by 1.085.
879.98 * 1.085 = $954.7783 = $954.78 (you always have to round to two decimal places with money)
Assuming this triangle is a right triangle, 52 degrees.
The answer is -4 + 7. Because its subtracting 4 to zero which makes it -4. And then its adding 7 so the answer is -4+7
