Answer:

x = -10

Explanation:

15 - 2 ( x + 5 ) = 25

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

15 - 2x - 10 = 25

Subtract the numbers

5 - 2x = 25

Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

-2x = 25 - 5

Subtract the numbers

-2x = 20

Subtract both sides

x = -10

Answer:

x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

15-2(x+5)=25

multiply the 2 by the x and 5 and you get

15-2x-10=25

since the 15 and the negative 10 are on the same side you add them together and get

5 -2x= 25

-5       -5

-2x =20

Then divide the -2/20= -10

I have $1000 invested in a coin worth $43000. If the coin reaches $100000 how much will I have invested?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

$2326

Step-by-step explanation:

I have $1000 invested in a coin worth $43000. If the coin reaches $100000 how much will I have invested?

To solve the above question, we have:

$43,000 = $1000

$100,000 = x

Cross Multiply

43000 × x = 100,000 × 1000

x = 100000 × 1000/43000

x = $2325.5813953

Approximately = $2326

Therefore, If the coin reaches $100000 you would have invested $2326

A survey was given to 339 people asking whether people like dogs and/or cats.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it as a Venn diagram.  One circle is the people who like dogs, and one circle is the people who like cats.  The overlap is people who like both dogs and cats.

190 people in the survey said they like dogs.  That includes the people who like both dogs and cats.

141 people in the survey said they like cats.  That includes the people who like both dogs and cats.

If we simply add the two numbers together, we'll be counting the overlap twice.  So to find the total number of people who like dogs or cats, we have to subtract one overlap.

dogs or cats = 190 + 141 − x

Therefore:

190 + 141 − x + 88 = 339

419 − x = 339

x = 80

80 people said they liked both cats and dogs.
