4x is substitution and x4 is to multiply. hope that helped
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
40
x 0.75
-----------
= 30
Twice a number increased by 5= 2x+5
5 decreased by twice a number= 5-2x
twice the difference of a number and 5= 2(x-5)
Twice the sum of a number and 5= 2(x+5)
Five subtracted from twice a number= 2x-5
Twice a number, less 5= 2x-5
I hope you mean 1/5 when you say 1 5. If that's what you mean, then both, Joshua and Melanie, are correct because, both of their equations are the same.
Joshua's - <span>8 ÷ 1/5 = 40 (Since we can divide a number by fraction, we use this rule: keep, change flip. When we use that Joshua's equation turns into 8 * 5/1 = 8*5 = 40, same as Melanie's.)</span>
The answer is C 7
Hope this helps
