Ok so in order to solve you need to get the variable by itself, in this case it is x. The first thing you do is add or subtract. You add 3 to the left side to cancel it and whatever is done to one side must be done to the other which is why you add 3 to 2. Now the equation is 2x=5. In order to get the x by itself you must divide by 2. When you divide 2x by 2, the 2 will cancel out. Again, you have to do the same thing to the other side. 5 divided by 2 is 5/2, so x=5/2 is your answer. To check, plug in 5/2 for x. 2 times 5/2 is 5 and 5-3 is 2. 2=2 so the answer is correct. Hope this helped!

Answer:

1.) 90 ways

2.) 15,600 ways

3.) 24 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Let's say we are given 2 digits not equal to each other...The number of different orderings would be 2*1 = 2, or if we wanted the number of ways to order 2 digits chosen : 10*9 = 90 ways

2.) The number of ways to arrange 3 letters from 26 letters is:

26 Permutes 3 = 26! / (26 -3)! = 26*25*24 = 15,600 ways to choose 3 letters in a certain order

3.) 4 different chores. The number of ways to do them = 4*3*2 *1 = 24 ways

4 hours 30 minutes = ? Minutes

tigry1 [53]

The answer is: " 270 minutes " .
__________________________________________________________
→ There are "270 minutes" in "4 hours and 30 minutes" .
__________________________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________________________
Method 1):
__________________________________________________________
Note: 60 minutes = 1 hour (exactly);

30 minutes = ?   hr ? ;

→ (30 minutes) * (1 hr/ 60 minutes) ;

= (30/60) hr = (3/6) hr = (3÷3)/(6÷3) hr ;

= " $\frac{1}{2}$ hr " ;

or; write as: " 0.5 hr " .
_________________________________________________________

So "4 hours & 30 minutes" = 4 hours + 0.5 hours = 4.5 hours.

→ 4.5 hours =   ? minutes ;

The answer is: " 270 minutes" .  4.5 hours * $\frac{60 min}{1 hr}$ ;

=  (4.5 * 60) minutes = " 270 minutes " .

→ The answer is: " 270 minutes ".
___________________________________________________________
Method 2)
___________________________________________________________

"4 hours and 30 minutes" = <u> ? </u> minutes " .
___________________________________________________________

→ " 4 hours = <u> ? </u> minutes " ;

→ 4 hr . * $\frac{60 min}{1 hr}$ = (4 * 60) minutes = 240 min. ;

→ There are " 240 minutes in 4 hours" .

→ To find the number of "minutes" in "4 hours and 30 minutes" ;

→ we takes the number of minutes in 4 hours—which is "240 minutes"—and add "30 minutes" to that number; as follows:

→ " 240 minutes + 30 minutes " ;

to get: " 270 minutes " .
_______________________________________________________

   → There are "270 minutes" in "4 hours and 30 minutes" .
_______________________________________________________

The answer is: " 270 minutes " .
