Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)
Step 1: distributive property
3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)
3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20
Step 2: collect like terms
3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20
3x + 14 = 5x - 18
Step 3: Addition property of equality
3x + 14 = 5x - 18
3x + 14 + 18 = 5x - 18 + 18
3x + 32 = 5x
Step 4: subtraction property of equality
3x + 32 - 3x = 5x - 3x
32 = 2x
Step 5: division property of equality
32 = 2x
32/2 = 2x/2
16 = x
x = 16
5/8=.625 and 7/15=.466 repeating so 5/8 is a bigger fraction
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The number 2 goes into both 12 and 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
12 ÷ 2 is 6 and 14 ÷2 is 7 . You can't really simplify 14 by any other whole number besides 2 or 7 .
First, find out how much he made in the week total: 24($8.75) = $210
The, find 1.45% of 210: (.0145)(210) = 3.045
*note that 1.45% = .0145*
Round that number to 3.05 and you have your answer
Answer:
182 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Time taken for first lap is 50 seconds and each subsequent lap takes 20% longer than previous
Solution:
Time taken for first lap = 50 sec
For second lap
Each subsequent lap takes 20% longer than previous
Previous lap time = 50 sec
second lap = 50 + 20% of 50
second lap 
second lap 
second lap 
For third lap
Each subsequent lap takes 20% longer than previous
Previous lap time = 60 sec
Third lap = 60 + 20% of 60




Time taken for 3 laps is equal to sum of all three laps time.


Therefore, it takes 182 seconds (3 min, 2 seconds) to run three laps
