Answer:

4 - ( 3x - 8 ) = 21

break the bracket first ,it gives : 4 - 3x + 8 = 21

12 - 3x = 21

- 3x = 21 - 12

- 3x = 9

-x = 9/3

-x = 3

X = - 3

[ check if the answer is correct, put -3 instead of X in the above equation ! we get 4 - { 3(-3) - 8 } = 21

4 - { - 9 - 8 } = 21

4 - { - 17 } = 21

break the bracket, minus and minus will multiply and will become plus , so we have 4 + 17 = 21 , hence 21 = 21 ! therefore X = -3

A teacher passes cards out to students. She has 52 cards. She gives one card to each student at a time to each student until all
Zarrin [17]
The problem presents 2 variables and 2 conditions to follow to determine the approach in solving the problem. The variables are 52 cards, and 9 cards. The 2 conditions presented would be the teacher giving out one card to each student at a time to each student until all of them are gone. The second variable is more likely made as a clue and the important variable that gives away the approach to be used. The approach to be used is division. This is to ensure that there will be students receiving the 9 cards. Thus, we do it as this: 52 / 9 = ?

The answer would be 5.77778 (wherein 7 after the decimal point is infinite and 8 would just be the rounded of number). This would ensure us that there will be 5 students that can receive 9 cards but there will be 7 cards remaining which goes to the last student, which is supposed to be 8 since she gives one card to each student at a time to each student. So the correct answer would be just 4 students. The fifth student will only receive 8 cards and the last student would have 8, too.

Louis’s bill from dinner at a restaurant is $27.62 before tax. The local tax rate is 7.5%. Louis would like to leave a 20% tip o
shtirl [24]
As Louis is only leaving a 20% tip on the pretax bill, this means he's leaving 20% of $27.62
The best thing to do is to find 10% and double it.
27.62/10= 2.76 (as it rounds down)
2.76*2= 5.52
Therefore, you've got to add $5.52 to $27.62
$5.52+$27.62= $33.14
Hope this helps :)
