Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Find x by isolating the variable, meaning get rid of every term until the variable, in this case it's x, is on one side of the equation and everything else is on the other side.
x - 2 = 8
Add +2 to both sides of the equation to cancel out the -2
x - 2 = 8
<u> +2 +2</u>
x + 0 = 10
x = 10
8 pieces of wood. It takes 6 inches to make 1 dowel, so with 4 feet (48 inches) you could make 8 dowels per board. You would need 7.5 boards to make 60, but you cant buy half a board, so the answer is 8
Answer:
I believe its 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 31
note: there is no fractional part, so the fractional part is essentially 0. The answer is a whole number
================================
Explanation:
To get this answer, you first add the fractions. Add only the numerators while keeping the denominator 2 the same. So we have 41+21 = 62 as the new numerator and that is over 2
Therefore, 41/2 + 21/2 = (41+21)/2 = 62/2
From here, we divide 62 in half to get 31. The denominator 2 cancels out and goes away when we divide it by 2
This means we go from 62/2 to 31 which is the final answer. This is not a mixed number as there is no fractional part. Instead, it is a whole number.
I guess if you wanted, you can write 31 as 31 & 0/2, though that seems like unneeded extra work in my opinion.
