Answer:

0.25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

You set up an equation with the given information:

4x+2(2.5)+2(3)=2x+1(2.5)+3(3)
Multiply: 4x+5+6=2x+2.5+9
Add: 4x+11=2x+11.5
Subtract: 4x=2x+0.5
Subract: 2x=0.5
Divide: x=0.25

Now check your work:

4(0.25)+2(2.5)+2(3)=2(0.25)+1(2.5)+3(3)
Multiply: 1+5+6=0.5+2.5+9
Add: 12=12

How many solutions does the equation 5x+17=4(3x−1) have?

Stella [2.4K]

<u>Answer:</u>

one solution = 3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5x+17=4(3x−1)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5x+17=4(3x−1)

5x+17=(4)(3x)+(4)(−1)(Distribute)

5x+17=12x+−4

5x+17=12x−4

Step 2: Subtract 12x from both sides.

5x+17−12x=12x−4−12x

−7x+17=−4

Step 3: Subtract 17 from both sides.

−7x+17−17=−4−17

−7x=−21

Step 4: Divide both sides by -7

-7x/-7 = -21/-7 = 3

Searches related to Anita needs 5 pounds of bananas to make banana bread for a bake sale. Each pond of bananas cost 0.50. How ca

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

$2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pounds of banana needed = 5 pounds

Cost per pound of banana = 0.50

To solve using place value blocks :

Ignoring the decimal in the cost per pound:

We can first take the product of 5 (Number of pounds of banana) and take cost per pound as 5. Since it is easier to make direct multiplication without decimal.

5 * 5 = $25

Now we can add the one decimal point (in the cost per pound) to our result

Then we have $2.5

Hence, total cost = $2.5
