Question

HELPPP, i did it but i’m not sure if it’s right thank uu

Answer 1

You have the correct sequence of reasons

Here's what the full step by step picture looks like

3.25(1.25x + 0.5) = 10.5  ................ given

4.0625x +  1.625 = 10.5  ................ distributive property

4.0625x = 8.875  ................ subtraction property of equality

x = 2.18461538461539 ....... division property of equality

---------------------------

Notes:

• The decimal value of x is approximate. Round it however you need.
• In the third step, we subtracted 1.625 from both sides
• In the fourth step, we divide both sides by 4.0625

Answer 2

Answer:

I am pretty sure that is right

Step-by-step explanation:

$3.25(1.25+0.5) = 10.5$   is given

Then you distribute the $3.25$ to the $1.25x$ and the $0.5$.

$3.25(1.25x)=4.06x$

$3.25(0.5)=1.6$

So the new equation would be $4.06x + 1.6= 10.5$

Then you would subtract $1.6$ from each side to get $4.06x=8.9$

Finally you would divide each side by $4.06$ to get $x= 1.93$.
