Answer:

x = 13 ; x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest related equation to get is simply solving for x:

a) x + 5 = 18

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Subtract 5 from both sides:

x + 5 (-5) = 18 (-5)

x = 18 - 5

x = 13*

b) 66x = 330

Isolate the variable, x. Divide 66 from both sides of the equation:

(66x)/66 = (330)/66

x = 330/66

x = 5*

*Note: An equation simply is a expression that has an equal sign. This means that as long as there is an equal sign, it counts as an equation.

How to work out 5-[5+8÷4-1]

rodikova [14]

PEMDAS (order of operations rules) require that we perform operations in a certain order: anything inside parentheses first, followed by any exponentiation, followed by mult. and div., finally followed by addition and subtraction.

Thus, we must evaluate 5+8÷4-1 first, as it's inside parentheses. Focusing on the division first, we get 5+8÷4-1 = 5 + 2 - 1, or 6.

Then we have 5 - [6], which comes out to -1.

A two digit number when read from left to right to right consiststs of consecutive integers. the nmber is six more than for time

Solnce55 [7]

I suppose you want to know such number. Since we have a two digit number consisting of two consecutive integers, the only possible numbers are:

$12,23,34,45,56,67,78,89$

Since we sorted all the cases out, we simply have to check which one satisfies the requirement. For each number, we'll write four times the the sum of its digits, and add 6, hoping to get the original number.

$\text{Number: } 12,\ \ 4\times \text{sum of digits: } 12\ \ \text{plus six: } 18\neq 12$
