If Dinah can skate 1/2 lap in 15 seconds,she can skate 1 lap in 30 seconds. This is because 15 multiplied by 2 is equal to 30.
The answer to this question is -.5. We can determine the common difference by just subtracting the first number to the second number 14 - 14.5 is equal to -.5, 14.5 - 15 is equal to -.5 and so on.
This sequence is arithmetic and the common difference is -.5
Answer:
the second one

Our missing number we are solving for is X.
We are told x will equal 2x (number doubled) plus -16.
x = 2x + -16 We want to move the smaller variable to the right to sit with the larger one and move the -16 to the left by subtracting it from both sides. Remember that subtracting a negative is the same as adding it. So essentially we add 16 to both sides.
16 = 2x - x Combine the variables
16 = x or x = 16
I chose to put the variable on the left in this problem to avoid having a -x on the left side. It doesn't matter which side the variable is on to solve, but when you state it - we usually say x = 16.
Answer:
1.07 (15 + x) = 42.80
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
CD= $15
Let the cost of the video game be x
The total cost= 15+x
Hence the equivalent expression is
1.07 (15 + x) = 42.80
open bracket
16.05+1.07x= 42.80
42.80-16.05= 1.07x
26.75=1.07x
x= 26.75/1.07
x= 25
Check
7% tax for CD
=0.07*15
=1.05
total =1.05+15
=$16.05
7% tax for Video game
=0.07* 25
=1.75
total =1.75+25
=$26.75
In all
=26.75+16.05
=$42.8
