<h2>5 grams</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Information :

Mass of a stack of nickels = 45g

No of nickels in a stack = 9 nickels

Mass of one nickel = ?

Let the mass of one nickel be x

$9 \: nickels = 45g \\ 1 \: nickels = xg$

Cross Multiply

$9x = 45$

Divide both sides of the equation by 9

$\frac{9x}{9} = \frac{45}{9}$

Simplify

$x = 5$

Solve 2(x-2) = 3(x+2)-8

IgorC [24]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2) = 3(x+2)-8

Multiply the 2 and 3 out to the numbers in the parentheses. Don't multiply the 3 out to the -8 because it is outside of the parentheses.

2x-4 = 3x+6-8

Combine the 6 and -8

2x-4 = 3x-2

Subtract 2x from both sides

-4 = x-2

Add 2 to both sides

-2=x
