3/10x-1/5=-2
First we Add 1/5 to both sides
1/5+-2=-1.8
So our problem now becomes
3/10x1.8=-2
Now we have to divide both sides by 3/10
3/10/-2=-0.15
x=-0.15
Answer:
2+n = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
2+ something must equal 8.
8 minus 2 = 6
n=6
Answer:
You will save: $15
Total cost: $60
Step-by-step explanation:
First turn the percent into a decimal.
To do so move the . over to the left twice.
20% - .20
Now multiply 75 by .20
75 x .20 = 15
So you will save $15
Now subtract 15 from 75
75 - 15 = 60
The answer is
round cake - 82.42 in²
rectangular cake - 114 in²
Round cake:
d = 7 in
r = d/2 = 7 in / 2 = 3.5 in
h = 2 in
The surface are of a cylinder is:
A = 2πr² + 2πrh
The surface are of the round cake (which is actually a cylindrical cake) excluding the bottom is:
A = 2πr² + 2πrh - πr²
A = πr² + 2πrh
A = 3.14 * 3.5² + 2 * 3.14 * 3.5 * 2
= 38.46 + 43.96
= 82.42 in²
Rectangular cake:
w = 6 in
l = 9 in
h = 2 in
The surface are of a rectangle is:
A = 2wl + 2wh + 2lh
The surface are of the rectangular cake excluding the bottom is:
A = 2wl + 2wh + 2lh - wl
A = wl + 2wh + 2lh
A = 6 * 9 + 2 * 6 * 2 + 2 * 9 * 2
= 54 + 24 + 36
= 114 in²
We want to solve

Subtract 2/(2x+1) from each side.

Add 1/4 to each side, and simplify the left side.

Cross multiply.
4(x - 2) = 1(2x + 1)
4x - 8 = 2x + 1
Simplify and solve for x.
4x - 2x = 1 + 8
2x = 9
x = 9/2 or x = 4 1/2.
