Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtract Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

250 = 4(1 - 7x)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Divide both sides by 4:                    125/2 = 1 - 7x
  2. Subtract 1 on both sides:                  123/2 = -7x
  3. Divide -7 on both sides:                   -123/14 = x
  4. Rewrite:                                             x = -123/14

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    250 = 4(1 - 7(-123/14))
  2. (Parenthesis) Multiply:        250 = 4(1 + 123/2)
  3. (Parenthesis) Add:              250 = 4(125/2)
  4. Multiply:                               250 = 250

Here we see that 250 does indeed equal 250.

∴ x = -123/14 is the solution to the equation.

Shante is calculating the amount of time it takes a rocket to get to the moon. The moon is around 239,000 miles from Earth. How
mel-nik [20]

Answer: 20 hours

Step-by-step explanation: We want to round our answer to the nearest hour, we know that the rocket can travel 200 miles per 1 minute, but we want to know first how many miles the rocket can travel per 60 minutes or 1 hour.

To find how many miles the rocket can travel at 60 minutes or 1 hour, simply multiply 200 x 60. 200 x 60 = 12,000 miles per hour.

Now, we want to find how many hours it would take for the rocket to travel from the earth to the moon.

Simply divide 239,000 by 12,000 to get the amount of hours it would take to reach the moon. 239,000/12,000 = about 20 hours.

So, it would take the rocket ship 20 hours to reach the moon from the earth.
