Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
LEt the number be x.
2x - 5 = 3
2x = 3 + 5 = 8
x = 8/2 = 4
To solve the equation: add 5 to both sides and then multiply by 1/2.
To find this answer, just look at the place value next to the one you are trying to find.
You are trying to find the whole number (or 7). The place value digit to the right is 4, which is less than 5. Round down
Your answer is 7
hope this helps
So, let's say the soft drink equals y and the sandwich equals x.
x + y = 9.9
The sandwich costs 3.5 times as much as the soft drink
x = 3.5y
Therefore, we can replace x with 3.5y since they're the same thing
3.5y + y = 9.9 <-- That's the equation :)
Answer:
1109
Step-by-step explanation:
an = d (n - 1) + c
an = what you're looking for
n = term position
d = the common difference, in your case, 16
c = first term of the sequence, or -27
a₇₂ = 16(72 - 1) + -27 = 1109
