Answer:

5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The previous jumper jumped p

The new jumper jumped p*1.1 and that was 5.5 ft

1.1p = 5

Divide each side by 1.1

1.1p/1.1 = 5.5/1.1

p = 5

The previous jumper jumped 5 ft

Answer:

5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the previous jump be represented by j.  Then 1.1j = 5.5 ft.

Dividing both sides by 1.1, we get j = 5 ft.  This was the height of the previous jump.

Solve 10 + 6(–9 – 4x) = 10(x – 12) + 8.
Luden [163]

Answer: x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>first, we remove the parentheses. </em>

10 - 54 - 24x = 10x - 120 + 8

<em>then, we just calculate that out.</em>

-44 - 24x = 10x - 112

<em>next, we move the terms.</em>

-24x - 10x = -112 + 44

<em>then, we collect the like terms and calculate it.</em>

-34x = -68

<em>finally, we divide both sides.</em>

x = 2

Answer:

Simplifying

5x + x = 54

Combine like terms: 5x + x = 6x

6x = 54

Solving

6x = 54

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '6'.

x = 9

Simplifying

x = 9
