Answer:

Error was at the fourth line: 12 = 16x

Correct solution: x = ½

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve the equation step by step to find the correct solution, and also, to find out at which line Cam made a mistake.

10 - 2x = 19x + 2 - 5x (given)

10 - 2x = 19x - 5x + 2

10 - 2x = 14x + 2

Add 2x to both sides

10 - 2x + 2x = 14x + 2 + 2x

10 = 14x + 2x + 2

10 = 16x + 2

Subtract 2 from both sides

10 - 2 = 16x + 2 - 2

8 = 16x (this is where Cam made an error, at the fourth line. He wrote: 12 = 16x. It seems Can only subtracted 2 from the right, then added 2 to the left. Subtraction property of equality was not properly done.)

Proceeding further with our calculation, we would divide both sides by 16

8/16 = 16x/16

½ = x

x = ½.

A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n})^ \frac{t}{n}
A=future amount
P=present amount
r=rate in decimal
n=number of times per year compounded
t=time in years

how many years to double
basically
A=2P at t=?
so we can simplify and ignore the pricipal given and do
2=(1+ \frac{r}{n})^ \frac{t}{n}
r=5.5%=0.055
n=1
t=t

2=(1+ \frac{0.055}{1})^ \frac{t}{1}
2=(1+ 0.055)^t
2=(1.055)^t
take the ln of both sides
ln2=t(ln(1.055))
divide both sides by ln1.055
\frac{ln2}{ln1.055}=t
use calculator to aproximate
12.9462=t

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 450 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Thursday. There were 50 fewer cheeseburgers
mash [69]

Answer:

250 hamburgers

Step-by-step explanation:

so if there were 50 less cheeseburgers then I would take 50 away from 450 and I would get 400. And then I divided it by 2. And so 200+50 = 250 so 250 hamburgers and 200 cheeseburgers. I hope this helps and I'm not good at explaining. :)
