4(x + 7) = 38
Since there is no operation sign between the 4 and parenthesis, it makes it an automatic multiplication problem.
You would use distributive property to multiply each which should leave your equation looking like this afterwards:
4x + 28 = 38
(4 times x and 4 times 7)
You would then solve it like a two step equation,
1. +28 - 28 = 0
2. 38 - 28 = 10
4x = 10
10 divided by 4 = 2.5
x = 2.5
We can recheck our work by substituting in the value of x.
4(2.5 + 7) = 38
10 + 28 = 38
When we substituted in the value, it gave us the correct inequality.
Therefore,
x = 2.5
Answer:
10/7 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let e = Ethan
k = Kayla
The following equations can de derived from the equation :
1/2 e = 2/3k
multiply both sides of the equation by 2
e = 4/3k --- 1
e + k = 10 --- 2
Substitute for e in equation 2
4/3k + k = 10
7/3k = 10
multiply both sides of the equation by 3/7
k = 30/7
Substitute for k in equation 1
e = (4/3) x 30/7 = 40/7
difference in length = 40/7 - 30/7 = 10/7

<span>A PRESENT FOR YOU </span>
<span>Ask someone to write a number, say a five-digit number. </span>
<span>(Can be a 2-digit.....3-digit.....4-digit....ect..... </span>
<span>Suppose the number written is </span>
<span>57836 </span>
<span>Now, without showing the asker, you write a number on </span>
<span>a sheet of paper and keep it folded. You have to write the </span>
<span>number by subtracting 2 from the above number and </span>
<span>adding 2 in front which will be.... </span>
<span>257834 </span>
<span>Next, ask the person to write another five-digit number </span>
<span>below his original number. Suppose he writes 37589. </span>
<span>So you now have... </span>
<span>57836 </span>
<span>37589 </span>
<span>Now you write a five-digit number below it in such a </span>
<span>way that each digit is 9 minus digit above. You now have... </span>
<span>57836 </span>
<span>37589 </span>
<span>62410 </span>
<span>Ask the person to add one more 5-digit number. If he </span>
<span>adds 54732, you add below it 45267. Note that you decided </span>
<span>the number by subtracting each of his digit from 9. </span>
<span>Thus, you now have..... </span>
<span>57836 </span>
<span>37589 </span>
<span>62410 </span>
<span>54732 </span>
<span>45267 </span>
<span>Next, ask him to add all the number and he gets 257834 </span>
<span>Show him the number which you had written as an answer </span>
<span>to this addition earlier in the folded paper and surprise him.</span>
