Their is no “ R, A, T, U” on the grid?
<span>(5.95 x 10^8)/(1.70 x 10^5)
=</span><span>(5.95 /1.7) x 10^3
=3.5 x 10^3
</span>
Answer:
Follows are the solution to this question.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find the solution file for the question in the attachment.
Your picture shows the first step: use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses.
5*7 -5*x = 2*x -3
Now, you have an equation with a constant and an x-term on each side. I like to pick the x-term with the smallest (most-negative) coefficient and add its opposite to the equation.
Adding 5x, we have
35 = 7x -3
Adding 3 will get the x-term on one side and the constant on the other
38 = 7x
Now, we divide by the coefficient of x
38/7 = x = 5 3/7
This is the correct answer, even though it is not an integer.

Check
5(7 -(5 3/7)) = 2(5 3/7) -3 . . . . substitute for x in the original equation
5(1 4/7) = 10 6/7 -3 . . . . . . . . . evaluate the parentheses on the left, do the multiplication on the right
5 20/7 = 7 6/7 . . . . . . . . . . . . do the multiplicaton on the left, the subtraction on the right
5 +2 6/7 = 7 6/7 . . . . . . . . . . . rewrite 20/7, realize 5+2=7. true
