3) Herpes zoster

Explanation:

Herpes zoster, popularly known as shingles, is a viral infection caused by the same chicken pox virus, Varicella-zoster, which may remain dormant or inactive in the spinal column and be reactivated in people after 50 years of age if expressive drop in immunity. In most cases, the disease manifests once and disappears after a few weeks. Anyone who has had chicken pox can develop an episode of herpes zoster.

Solve the following equation for x. Round the answer to the nearest hundredth.
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

answer is A) -1.69

Explanation:

-1.4x=5(x+2.16)

multiply 5 by equation in bracket.

-1.4x= 5x+10.8

move 5x to the left side because of x and the equation will look like this -1.4x-5x=10.8

subtract -5x from -1.4x and you'll get -6.4x

-6.4x=10.8

divide both sides by -6.4x and your answer will be x=-1.6875 round it to get -1.69
