Answer 1

Answer:

$(34)$

Step-by-step explanation:

So, just do backwards equation:

$52 - 35$

$==> 17$

Thus, meaning that what multiplied by 0.50 is equal to 17?

[tex]==> 17[tex]

Answer 2

Put any Variable in between the parentheses, for example x.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Move the Constant 35 to the other side of the problem, and flip it's sign.

0.5(×)=52-35

2. Subtract the numbers

0.5×=17

3. Divide both sides of the equation by 0.5

×=34
