Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x - 5) = 10

You would first multiply 2 by x and 5

2x-10 = 10

then you would add ten to both sides

2= 20

then you would divide 2 by 20

x=10

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 10 because there are 20 days and no home work is due on 7 of those days so that’s 13 days with homework from math or writing. Then you take the three days where it was just math and subtract that to get 10 days of writing.

Kylie buys a ceramic case priced at $75. Shipping and handling are an additional 9 2/5% of the price. How much shopping and hand

salantis [7]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
75&100\\
x&9\frac{2}{5}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{75}{x}=\cfrac{100}{9\frac{2}{5}}\implies \cfrac{75}{x}=\cfrac{100}{\frac{9\cdot 5+2}{5}}$

$\bf \cfrac{75}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{100}{1}}{\frac{47}{5}}\implies \cfrac{75}{x}=\cfrac{100}{1}\cdot \cfrac{5}{47}\implies \cfrac{75}{x}=\cfrac{500}{47}\implies 75\cdot 47=500\cdot x
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3525}{500}=x\implies \cfrac{141}{20}=x\implies 7.05=x$
