Algebra is solving for the unknown so
if you have 10 apples and you give 5 to your friend, how many apples would you have so that is also 10-5=x solve for x
or it could be more complicated like (x-2)/6+4x-3=17
Answer:
1. a. His new texting speed after one month is 2 + 1/2 = 2.5 characters per second.
b. After two months it will be 2 + (1/2) * 2 = 3 characters / second.
c. Answer is 2 + 1/2 * 3 = 3.5 characters/second/.
2. The answer is s = 1/2m + 2
3. To solve for m we write 8 = 1/2m + 2 → 6 = 1/2m → m = 12 months.
4. 10r + 4 = 8 → 10r = 4 → r = 0.4
5. The variable r represents the rate she must increase her texting speed by per month.
6. A scenario could be "Allison has 37 marbles in a jar. She took out 5 from the jar and wants to divide the remaining amount equally among her 8 friends. How many marbles does each friend get?".
71/20 is not in simplest form because you need to change it into a mixed number by dividing 71 and 20 and putting the remainder over 20.
Let's solve this question by step by step.
Layout equation.
−104=−8(k+8)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−104=−8(k+8)
−104=(−8)(k)+(−8)(8)(Distribute)
−104=−8k+−64
−104=−8k−64
Step 2: Flip the equation.
−8k−64=−104
Step 3: Add 64 to both sides.
−8k−64+64=−104+64
−8k=−40
Step 4: Divide both sides by -8.
-8k/-8=-40/-8
The answer for this problem is k=5.
