2x-2/5=8 Please explain answer

Mathematics
1 answer:
Juliette [100K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=21

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x-2/5*5=8*5 Multiply the 5 on both sides to cancel out the denominator.

2. 2x-2+2=40+2 Add 2 on both sides to isolate the term with the variable.

3. 2x/2=42/2 Divide both sides by 2 in order to isolate the variable itself. Yay, you got the answer, 21!

Heyy I hope you have a great day, this took forever to type so it would be very appreciated if you marked this answer as brainliest... UwU

Find the missing value of a triangle one leg is 12 and the long side is 20 what is the other leg?
Burka [1]
Simple,

using the Pythagorean Theorem...

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

You have the hypotenuse (C) and one of the legs (A)

So, plug in what you know...

12^{2}+ b^{2}  = 20^{2}

144+b^{2}=400

Now,isolate b^{2}

144+ b^{2} =400
-144                   -144

Leaving you with...

b^{2} =256

So, now, \sqrt{256}, to find what b is..

b=16

Thus, your answer.

There are 221 students on a field trip.
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The equation that models the students is a linear equation

The equation that models the number of students in each bus is 6x = 216, and the number of students in each bus is 36

<h3>How to determine the equation?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Students = 221

Van = 5

The rest students = 6 buses

Start by calculating the number of students remaining:

Remaining students = 221 - 5

Remaining students = 216

Represent the number of students in each bus with x.

So, we have:

6 buses * x  = Remaining students

This gives

6x = 216

Divide both sides by 6

x = 36

Hence, the equation that models the number of students in each bus is 6x = 216, and the number of students in each bus is 36

Breanna has quarters, dimes, and nickels in her purse. she has 3 fewer nickles than dimes, but she has 2 more nickles than quart
zmey [24]
We base ourselves in the one piece of crucial evidence: She has 2 quarters.
-from the rest of the problem, we know that she has 2 more NICKEL'S than QUARTERS, 

(2 Quarters + 2 = 4 nickels)

she has 3 fewer nickels than dimes, 

DIME - 3 = Nickels

D - 3 = 4

D = 7

7 dimes
(70 cents)

4 nickels
(20 cents)

2 quarters
(25 cents)

115 cents
or $1.15
