1. Combine like terms, so add 2.4 to -4.8 to get -2.4
So now you should be left with .02(x+20)-2.4=-9
2. Now eliminate the -2.4 by adding 2.4 to both sides, getting .02(x+20)=-6.6
3. Multiply everything by 50 to make x+20=-333, since 50×.02=1
4. subtract 20 from both sides to get x=-353

We need to distribute the parenthesis before we do anything. 0.02(x+20)=0.02x+0.4; now let's put this into the equation.

2.4+0.02x+0.4-4.8=-9; this is all about making sure we get x on one side, isolated. We need to add all the like terms.

0.02x-2=-9; let's add 2 to both sides. 0.02x=-7; let's divide each side by 0.02 so that we can have x by itself. x=-350; let's plug -350 in as in the original equation to make sure that is our answer.

2.4+0.02(-350+20)-4.8=-9; let's add the parenthesis. 2.4+0.02(-330)-4.8=-9; let's multiply. 2.4-6.6-4.8=-9; let's subtract. 2.4-6.6=-4.2-4.8=-9

So, x=-350.

Todd earned some money doing chores. He spent one-fourth of his money see a movie. Then he spent $6.00 on popcorn and drinks. Wh
Vsevolod [243]

Answer: Todd earned $40 mowing the neighbor's lawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of money that Todd earned, mowing his neighbor's lawn.

He spent one-fourth of his money see a movie. It means that the amount spent in seeing a movie is x/4

Then he spent $6.00 on popcorn and drinks. It means that the total amount spent is

x/4 + 6

The amount left would be

x - (x/4 + 6) = x - x/4 - 6

When he went home, he had $24.00 left. It means that

x - x/4 - 6 = 24

x - x/4 = 24 + 6

x - x/4 = 30

Cross multiplying by 4, it becomes

4x - x = 120

3x = 120

x = 120/3

x = $40

Find the value of the variables in the simplest form
STatiana [176]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

tan60° = \sqrt{3}

tan60° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{x}{\sqrt{3} } = \sqrt{3} ( multiply both sides by \sqrt{3} )

x = 3
