What are two step equations

miskamm [114]

2 step equations are equations that require 2 steps to solve it.

For example, 2x + 5 = 3x + 6

To solve for x, we must isolate it.

First subtract 2x on both sides, which is ONE step.

2x + 5 = 3x + 6
-2x -2x

5 = x + 6

The we must subtract 6 from both sides of the equation, which makes is the second step.

5 = x + 6
-6 -6

-1 = x

-1 would be the answer and we only used 2 steps to solve it.

Gabe Amodeo, a nuclear physicist, needs 60 liters of a 60% acid solution. He currently has a 50% solution and a 70% solution.

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Gabe needs 20 liters of the 40% solution.

He also needs 40 liters of the 70% solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation:

acid + acid = acid

0.40x + 0.70(60-x) = 0.60*60

40x + 70*60 - 70x = 60*60

-30x = -10*60

x = 20 liters

Gabe needs 20 liters of the 40% solution.

He also needs 40 liters of the 70% solution.

The ticket sales for Fist Bump are as follows:

Fed [463]

Notice that the denominators are 3 and 7, which are factors of 21.

So express all the fractions with denominator 21:

On Monday $\frac{1}{7} = \frac{1}{7} * \frac{3}{3} = \frac{3}{21}$ are sold
On Tuesday $\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{3} * \frac{7}{7} = \frac{7}{21}$ are sold
On Wednesday $\frac{2}{7} = \frac{2}{7} * \frac{3}{3} = \frac{6}{21}$ are sold

by Thursday $\frac{3}{21}+\frac{7}{21}+\frac{6}{21} = \frac{3+7+6}{21}= \frac{16}{21}$ of the tickets was sold.

Answer: $\frac{16}{21}$
