-3(x + 5) = -9
-3x + -15 = -9
-3x - 15 = -9
-3x - 15 + 15 = -9 + 15 (we added 15 to both sides of the equation because now, the 15 on the left side cancels out).
-3x = 6
-3x/-3 = 6/-3
X = -2
So, in conclusion, X is equal to -2.

A report states that 32% of New Jersey residents think that a nice car costs too much money. Which element should probably be be
SOVA2 [1]

You should probably define what makes a car "nice", and also quantify the "too much money".


Qualitative words are often not welcomed in maths/science in general, because people can disagree on their meaning.


So, for example, if you change the sentence into


"A report states that 32% of New Jersey residents think that mercedes cars cost 30% more than they should"


Then everything would be "fixed", and there is no ambiguity anymore

If 100% of a number is 15, then what is 50% of the number?
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The answer is 7.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we're looking for half of 15, divide 15 by 2 (or multiply 15 by 0.5, it's the same thing) and you get 7.5.


I hope this helped! :)
