Hi there,
Your question is "twice a number (x) is fifty"
Recall how a number is represented by x.
Twice a number would be represented as 2x.
Therefore, to represent that twice a number is equal to 50, that would result in the expression: 
If you're looking to solve this equation, it's often best to think about the "reverse" of the current equation.
Notice how 2 is multiplying the x.
To isolate x, divide that side by 2.
However, recall that whatever is done to one side of an equation must also be done to the other side of the equation. Therefore, you will need to divide both sides by 2.
Equation:
Solving for x: 25
Hope that helps!
Answer=30
20%=20/100=0.2
150*.20=30
At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawls, each in the same amount.
Let x be the amount of one of Derek's withdrawals
Each of John's withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made.
x + 5 is t the amount of one of John's withdrawals
Derek made 7 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 7 times = 7x
John made 5 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 5 times = 5(x+5)
Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end
(A) 7x = 5(x+5)
(B) Solve for x
7x = 5x + 25
Subtract 5x from both sides
2x = 25
Divide by 2
x = 12.5
(C) check your solution
we plug in 12.5 for x in 7x= 5x + 25
7(12.5) = 5(12.5) + 25
87.5 = 62.5+ 25
87.5 = 87.5
(D) Each brother withdrawal 87.5 dollars
No because a right triangle always has a right angle
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Communitive only works with multiplication and addition. It states that if you have something adding or subtracting something switched around, they are the same. B has that so the answer is B
