Answer:</h3>
After 16 downloads the charges will equal each other.
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
First set up an equation
x = Downloads
12 + 1x = 5 + 1.5x
Solve
12 + 1x = 5 + 1.5x <- Rewrite your equation
-5 -5 <- Subtract 5 from both sides
8 + 1x = 1.5x <- Simplify
-1x -1x <- Subtract 1 from both sides
8 = 0.5x <- Simplify
8 = 1/2x <- Convert 0.5 to a fraction to make the next step easier
16 = x <- Multiply both sides by 2 to divide by
a fraction
Quotient means division....less then means subtract
(y/2) - 5
Are you solving for X? If so, your answer will be x=-3. Hope this helps!
