Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Let's call our fraction x.
x=3.777......
We want to get rid of the repeating stuff. If we multiply our fraction by 10, we get 10x=37.7777.
We see that if we subtract x from 10x, the repeating numbers will be cancelled out. Let's do this.
10x=37.7777
-
x=3.77777
=
9x=34
We divide both sides by 9.
x=34/9=3 7/9.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer: Symmetric Property
Explanation: The symmetric property states that x = y, then y = x.
So the symmetric property allows us to
switch the left and right sides of an equation.
At least try before coming to brain key
2x + 10 = 90 is our equation.
2x (x, the amount of baskets he made)
10 (the original bonus)
90 (total points)
Subtract 10 from both sides to get 2x by itself.
2x = 80
Divide by 2 to get x.
x = 40.
Nick made 40 baskets.
