So in equations you want to do the same thing to both sides so that the equation will stay equal
when dealing with one unknown number (m) try to get them all on the same side
0.6m+3=2m+0.2
I usually like positive unknowns so
subtract 0.6m from both sides
3=1.4m+0.2
subtract 0.2 from both sides
2.8=1.4m
divide both sides by 1.4
2.8/1.4=2=x
if dividing by decimals move the decimal either round the decimals up or down then divide. or multiply them by the 10 to the same power then divide.
x=2
Answer:
The farmer bought 36 pigs in all.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a farmer bought a number of pigs for $ 160, but, however, 8 of them died before he could sell the rest at a profit of 6 per pig, and his total profit was $ 8, to determine how many pigs did he originally buy the following calculation must be performed:
160 + 8 = 168
168/6 = 28
28 + 8 = 36
Thus, the farmer bought 36 pigs in all.
Answer: 895 phones
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
The function : y = 1.28e^1.31x ; is used to model the number of camera phones shipped since 1997
y = number of camera phones ; x = number of years since 1997
The number of camera phones shipped in the year 2002 can be obtained thus ;
x = 2002 - 1997 = 5 years
y = 1.28e^(1.31 * 5)
y = 1.28e^6.55
y = 1.28(699.24417)
y = 895.03254
y = 895 phones
This gives no information, how many of each were sold
