Two solutions exist,
2(x - 1) = 8
2x - 2 = 8
2x = 10
x = 5
&
2(x + 1) = 8
2x + 2 = 8
2x = 6
x = 3
the two solutions are 5 and 3
Let, money spend by jane = x
Maggie spend = 2x-6
So, x+2x-6 = 45
3x= 51
x=17, 2x-6 = 28
So, jane spend $17 & Maggie spend $28
Since we are calculating the amount that he got correct, we must divide the numerator by the denominator or make the denominator equal 100. I will do it the second way as it is easier in this case.
25*4 = 100
21*4 = 84
84/100 = 0.84
As a decimal, Andrew got 0.84 of his test correct. Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 44 to both sides.
2x=10+4
2x=10+4
2 Simplify 10+410+4 to 1414.
2x=14
2x=14
3 Divide both sides by 22.
x=\frac{14}{2}
x=
2
14
4 Simplify \frac{14}{2}
2
14
to 77.
x=7
x=7
Done
Answer:
Pattern A starts at 0 and uses the rule Add 2
Pattern B starts at 0 and uses the rule Add 3.
