Answer:
(B) Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation, and then divide both sides by 2.

(A) 0.53
Step-by-step explanation:
Number 1:
If we have the equation 
, our first goal is to get rid of the x term on one side.
To do this we can subtract 3x from both sides. This leaves our equation to 
. To find x, we want to divide both sides by 2 since 2x divided by 2 is just x. Our goal is to isolate x. This leaves 
.

Number 3:
Given the equation 
, we want to isolate x on one side.
To do this, we first apply the distributive property to the left side.
Now subtract 0.6 from both sides:
And divide both sides by 3.
This rounds to 0.53.
Hope this helped!
7/10 you just get the decimal form of the numbers and find a simple decimal between them, which was 7, and put it over 10 so you get 7/10
Example of use of terms:
Statement: If it is far, we take a bus.
Inverse: If it is not far, we do not take a bus.
Converse: If we take a bus, it is far.
Contrapositive: If we do not take a bus, it is not far.
We also know that
1. The inverse of the inverse is the statement itself, and similarly for converse and contrapositive.
2. Only the contrapositive is logically equivalent to the original statement.
This means that the converse and inverse are logically different from the original statement.
Now back to the given statement.
To find the original statement, we find the contrapositive of the contrapositive.
We then find the converse from the original statement, as in the example above.
Original statement
(note that in English, if it is not worth X dollars, means if it is not worth AT LEAST X dollars")
contrapositive of
<span>
"If an item is not worth five dimes, then it is not worth two quarters.”
is the negation of the converse, which become
"If an item is worth two quarters, then it is worth (at least) five dimes."
The converse of the previous statement is therefore
"If an item is worth (at least) five dimes then it is worth two quarters"
In this particular case, we can also take advantage of the fact that the contrapositive is the negation of the converse. So all we have to do is the provide the negation of each component of the contrapositive to get the converse:
"If an item is worth (at least) five dimes, then it is worth two quarters".
as before.
Note that the converse does NOT logically mean the same as the original statement.
