Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 (x-2)=8 equal to 2x-4=8, put -4 to the other side by subtracting 4 on both sides once you do you get 2x=4 so 4 divided by 2 equals 2.
Answer:
27 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The regular hours are paid normally, 21/hr hence working for 40 hours, Michael earns 40*21=$840
To work x hours paid overtime as 1.5 of the normal rate, the rate would be $21*1.5=$31.5/hr
X hours multiplied by rate of $31.5/hr should be at least equal to $840
31.5x>=840
X>=840/31.5>=26.6667 hours and when rounded off
X is 27 hours
Answer:
16n=16n or n=1
Step-by-step explanation:
5n + 11n = 16n add like terms
16n = 16n divide both sides by 16
n = 1
Tuesday's temp = Sunday's temp + 5° - 8° = Sunday's temp - 3°
Then ...
Sunday's temp = Tuesday's temp + 3°
Sunday's high temperature was 3° warmer than Tuesday's.
4x = 3/8
there are 2 ways to do this...
(1) 4x = 3/8....divide both sides by 4
x = (3/8) / 4
x = 3/8 * 1/4
x = 3/32 <==
or
(2) 4x = 3/8....multiply both sides by 1/4, cancelling out the 4 on the left
x = 3/8 * 1/4
x = 3/32 <==
