What is x 2(2x+3)-2=5

Mathematics
1 answer:
Scilla [17]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 0.25 or \frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2x + 3) - 2 = 5 (Given)

2 · 2x + 2 · 3 - 2 = 5 (Distributive Property of Equality)

4x + 6 - 2 = 5 (Simplify)

4x + 4 = 5 (Simplify)

4x + 4 - 4 = 5 - 4 (Subtraction Property of Equality)

4x = 1 (Simplify)

\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{1}{4} (Division Property of Equality)

x = 0.25 or \frac{1}{4} (Simplify)

For their craft project during the first week of camp, the campers used clothespins to make miniature rocking chairs. To make 90
fenix001 [56]

1080 clothespins makes 90 chairs and we need to find out how many clothespins it takes to make 1 chair.

We can set up a proportion of the number of chairs to the number of clothespins because of the proportional relationship.

x is the number of clothes pins for 1 chair

\frac{90 chairs}{1080 clothespins} =\frac{1 chair}{x clothespins}

Cross multiply to get

90*x= 1080*1

Divide both sides by 90 to isolate x

x = 12 clothespins

It takes 12 clothespins to make 1 chair.

NARA [144]

Answer:

For number two, nearest whole number is 13. nearest hundredth is 13.26. number three I don't see anything.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation: When rounding, u look at the right number and if

greater than 4, round up which is add one

if right number is 4 or less we take nothing. also we change all other numbers behind the left number to 0. so round to a whole number it would be 13. 2 is smaller than 5. Nearest hundredth is the same thing. we look at the hundredth place which is 6. We look to the right. it's 0. less than 5 we round down. so it would be 13.2600. Or 13.26

number 3 I don't see anything so I can't help out
