Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

4(x - 2) = 3x + 1

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. <u>Distribute 4:</u> 4x - 8 = 3x + 1
  2. <u>Subtract 3x on both sides:</u> x - 8 = 1
  3. <u>Add 8 to both sides:</u> x = 9

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. <u>Substitute:</u> 4(9 - 2) = 3(9) + 1
  2. <u>Parenthesis (add):</u> 4(7) = 3(9) + 1
  3. <u>Multiply:</u> 28 = 27 + 1
  4. <u>Add:</u> 28 = 28

Answer:

2 1/8 inches from either edge

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to subtract the computer length from the table length to find how much room there will be left on the table 28 3/4-24 2/4=4 1/4 and now since he wants it in the center we will divide that number by 2 because there will be some room on either side of the computer 4 1/4 divided by 2 is 2 1/8
