Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 2/4-x = 10/4+x

Cross multiply

10(4-x) = 2(4+x)

10(4) - 10x = 2(4)+ 2x

40 - 10x = 8 + 2x

-10x - 2x = 8 - 40

-12x = -32

Multiply both sides by -1

-1(-12x) = -1(-32)

12x = 32

This shows the required expression

OK so im really bad at math im learning decimal place value and can u tell me whats one hundred three and nine tenths in standar

Free_Kalibri [48]

The first part (one hundred and three) can be expressed the same way you'd express any integers, simply as 103. To add the nine tenths, you simply add a nine in the tenths place, which is the digit immediately following a decimal point. As a result, the number is 103.9.
