Hi there!

Let's replace "a number" by "x":

- two times x = 2x

- decreased by 3 = -3


Here's what the equation should look like:

2x - 3 = 11


Now that you have written down your equation, all you have to do now is solve it for "x" by isolating it :

2x - 3 = 11

Add 3 on each side of the equation

2x = 14

Divide each side of the equation by 2

x = 7


Your answer is: The number is 7.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Choose the best decimal equivalent to 5/8
vlada-n [284]

To convert this fraction to a decimal, just divide the numerator (5) by the denominator (8): 5 ÷ 8 = 0.625. So,

5/8 = 0.625

Rounded values:

<span><span>5/8 = 1 rounded to the nearest integer</span><span>5/8 = 0.6 rounded to 1 decimal place</span><span>5/8 = 0.63 rounded to 2 decimal places</span></span>

Sarah needs 10 feet of fabric for a project she is working on, but the store only sells the fabric in meters. One meter of fabri
Aleks [24]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The fabric will cost $4.58

D.$4.58

<h2>Why?</h2>

Since it's a conversion exercise, we need to pay special attention to the conversion procedure.

From the statement we know that:

1ft=0.305m

So, if she needs 10 feet of fabric, we need to convert it to meters, and then, calculate its cost.

We have that:

10*1ft=10*0.305m\\\\10ft=3.05m

Now, we have that each meter of fabric cost $1.50, so, 3.05m of fabric will cost:

\frac{1m}{1.50(dollars)}=\frac{3.05m}{cost}\\\\cost=\frac{3.05m*1.50(dollars)}{1m}=4.575(dollars)=4.58(dollars)

Hence, we have that the cost of the fabric will be $4.58.

The correct option is: D.$4.58​

Have a nice day!

A lotion is made from an oil blend costing $1.50 per ounce and glycerin costing $1.00 per ounce. Four ounces of lotion costs $5.
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

A=(4-g) 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g be the amount of glycerin in the lotion.  We know that there are 4 ounces total of lotion; this means that there are 4-g ounces of the oil blend.

The oil blend costs $1.50 per ounce; this gives us the expression (4-g)1.5 for the oil blend.
