Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding the same number to both sides of the equation is an acceptable move. The addition property of equality tells Grace that the value of the variable will remain unchanged by such a move.
Her new equation would be ...
2x +20 +10 = 15 +10
2x +30 = 25 . . . . the result of Grace's move
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
There may be very good reasons why Grace would want to do that. If solving the equation is Grace's intent, that move would be counterproductive. For the purpose of solving the equation, it would be more productive to either subtract 20 from both sides, or divide both sides by 2. These steps would give, respectively, ...
2x = -5
x +10 = 7.5
Answer:
The first zero after decimal point and 4 only
Step-by-step explanation:
Despite having 5 decimal points, the rules of significant figures dictate that unless there is a digit other than zero after, the only significant numbers are those that come before zero. For this case, the significant digits are only 0.04 but if it was 0.0400005 then all the other zeros would have also be considered significant.
53,445,912. This answer is correct, as I did it by calculator. Good luck!
