Answer:
Division Property of Equality
Step-by-step explanation:
→In Step 4, it is shown that the equation is:
3x = 30
→However, to solve for x, you must get it by itself. This means you need to get rid of the 3 that's being multiplied. So since the 3 is being multiplied to x, you must do the opposite of multiplication, which is division.
→As you can see, the total of 30 is decreased in Step 5, since it has been divided by 3, giving you a total of 10.
This shows that the property of equality that yields Step 5 is the <u>Division Property of Equality.</u>
5/16 as a decimals. Divide 5 by 16 = 0.3125 times 100 = 31.25%
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
11 = 4x-9
20 = 4x
20/4 = 4x/4
5 = x
