Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Subtract 2/4 from both sides

x + 2/4 (-2/4) = 8/4 (-2/4)j

x = 8/4 - 2/4

Simplify

x = (8 - 2)/4

x = 6/4

Simplify. Change the improper fraction into mixed fraction

x = 6/4 = (4/4 + 2/4) = 1 2/4

1 2/4 simplified = 1 1/2

1 1/2 is your answer

You use 4 gallons of water on 14 plants in your garden.At this rate, how much water will it take to water 35 plants?
Naddika [18.5K]

For this case we can make the following rule of three:

4 gallons --------------> 14 plants

x --------------------------> 35 plants

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

x = (\frac{35}{14}) * (4)\\x = 10

therefore, 10 gallons are needed to irrigate 35 plants.

Answer:

it will take 10 gallons to water 35 plants

Anna [14]

Answer:

($48 - $24) = $24 sale price.

Tax on $24 is ($24)*(0.05) = $1.20
