" the difference " means subtract
the difference between 5 and twice a number x is 1
5 - 2x = 1 <== ur equation
-2x = 1 - 5
-2x = - 4
x = -4/-2
x = 2 <== ur solution
According to Order of Operations rules, we must multiply before adding or subtracting.
With this in mind, notice that the first operation is mult.: (-5)(-4) = +20.
At the end is another mult.: -4(6) = -24.
So, write -20 - 6 - 24. End result: -50
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
P(x)=S(x)-C(x)
0.8=9-C(x)
C(x)=9 -0.08
C(x)=8.92
