Solve the equation using the distributive property and properties ofequally 1/2 (x+6)=18 what is the value of X

1 answer:

7 0

x = 30

The distributive property says that we need to multiply what's in the brackets by 1/2 (so 1/2*x and 1/2*6) to get the equation 1/2x + 3 = 18.

Then we need to subtract our constant, 3, from boths sides to get 1/2x = 15.

Multiply both sides by two to isolate x and you get x = 30.

Hope this helps! :)

Chapter 7 of the Jiuzhang suanshu presents a problem of two linear equations involving acres of land and their respective prices

djyliett [7]

Answer: 33.041666

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The translated equation : $300x+y = 10000$

To find the value of x if y = 87.5, we need to substitute the value of y in the given translated equation, we will get

$300x+87.5 = 10000$

Subtract 87.5 from both the sides , we get

$300x=9912.5$

Now, divide 300 on both the sides, we get

$x=\frac{9912.5}{300}\\\\\Rightarrow x=33.041666666$
