Answer:

The simplified form of the given expression is 8.9x+1.66.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$5.3x-8.14+3.6x+9.8$

We need to find the simplified form of the given expression.

If two terms have same variables of same degree then they are called like terms.

In the given expression 5.3x and 3.6x are like terms and -8.14 and 9.8 are like terms.

On combining like terms we get

$(5.3x+3.6x)+(-8.14+9.8)$

$(8.9x)+(1.66)$

$8.9x+1.66$

Therefore, the simplified form of the given expression is 8.9x+1.66.

How do you solve x+2a=16+ax-6a ?

nasty-shy [4]

X+2a = 16+aX-6a
8X - 16 = aX-2a
8(X-2) = a(X-2)
(X-2)/(X-2) = a/8
1 = a/8
a= 8

The ratio of John's money to Jimmy's money is 5:8. Jimmy spent 1/4

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

a. $3600

b. 6:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the question into an equation:

8x - 1/4 x 8x = 5x + 450

(simplify before solving) 6x = 5x + 450

(solve) 6x-5x = 450

x = 450

This means that Jimmy had 8 x 450 $ to start with = 3600

you can check this by subtracting a quarter of 3600 from 3600 and also multiplying 450 by 5 and then obtaining their difference. You get 450!

Now ratio of new amounts:

Jimmy now has: $2700

John still has: $2250

so ratio is 2700:2250

simplify to 6:5
