<span>1/2(7x-8)+2x =2-(10x+4)
Distribute
(7x-8)/2 + 2x = 2 -10x -4
combine like terms
(7x - 8)/2 + 2x = -10x - 2
Multiply both sides by 2
7x - 8 + 4x = -20x -4
Combine like terms
11x - 8 = -20x - 4
add 8 to both sides
11x = -20x + 4
add 20x to both sides
11x + 20x = 4
combine like terms
31x = 4
divide both sides by 31
x = 4/31 or </span><span>0.129.

Answer:
260 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
An estimate of 26.5% of the water used each day is for cleaning and a family uses 68.9 gallons of water a day for cleaning,
Percentage of water used for cleaning= 26.5%
Gallons of water used for cleaning= 68.9
Let the number of gallons used everyday be represented by g. This will give:
26.5% of g = 68.9
26.5/100 × g = 68.9
0.265 × g = 68.9
0.265g = 68.9
Divide both side by 0.265
0.265g/0.265 = 68.9/0.265
g= 260
260 gallons of water are used everyday

Step-by-step explanation:
5/7x+40+0.75x−118=x
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5/7x+40+0.75x−118=x
5/7x+40+0.75x+−118=x
(5/7x+0.75x)+(40+−118)=x(Combine Like Terms)
1.464286x+−78=x
1.464286x−78=x
Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.
1.464286x−78−x=x−x
0.464286x−78=0
Step 3: Add 78 to both sides.
0.464286x−78+78=0+78
0.464286x=78
Step 4: Divide both sides by 0.464286.
0.464286x/0.464286=78/0.464286
x=168
Answer:
Julie and her 2 sisters want to buy a new videogame, it costs $20, if their grandmother gives them $3.20 to buy it, how much will each have to pay?
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have a problem like this you just have to thing on a reason to multiply by a fraction and a withdrawal from the total, if you are multiplying by a fraction, that means you are dividing money, so thats why we put julie and her sisters as subjects, and her grandma givin them money is to withdraw from the total amount those $3.20
