Steps to solve:
5(x + 1) = 20
~Distributive property
5x + 5 = 20
~Subtract 5 to both sides
5x + 5 - 5 = 20 - 5
~Simplify
5x = 15
~Divide 5 to both sides
5x/5 = 15/5
~Simplify
x = 3
Best of Luck!
D.) <span>A picnic table is on sale for 40 percent off. The original price of the picnic table is x, $144.10
It is on sale for 40% so, new amount will be 60%, and x is the sale price, so in order to calculate original price, you have to multiply them
Hope this helps!</span>
Well,
we know that we need to accumulate points from x and y to reach 20 points.
since x provide 3 and y provide 4 points, the formula would be :
3x + 4y = 20
or it can be written as :
y = (3x/4)+5
hope this helps
9)To find the LCD you need to find a number that all of the denominator numbers can divide into, for this problem it would be 12. 12/6+12/4+12/3=1
2+3+4=1
9=1
No solution
10) In order to solve this problem you need to cross multiply
2(3x+5)=7(10
6x+10=70
6x=60
x=10
Have a great day!:)
