Our current equation is:
2.5x -3.67 = 1.52.
To solve for x, we need to get x by itself and then simplify what we can from there.
2.5x -3.67 = 1.52
Add 3.67 to both sides to get 2.5x by itself.
2.5x = 5.19 is now our new equation.
Divide both sides by 2.5 to get x.
5.19/2.5 = 2.07
x = 2.07
I hope this helps!
Five times the number x plus two
Answer:
250 boys attended the conference.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, divide 750 by 3 (one-third of the conference is boys) and you will get 250 (number of boys). If you wanted to find the number of girls too, you would simply double 250 to get 500 girls.
