Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-0.55n - 0.05
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start by distributing:
(0.25n - 0.3) - (0.8n - 0.25)
0.25n - 0.3 - 0.8n + 0.25
Then, you can combine like terms(0.25n & -0.8n; -0.3 & 0.25)
-0.55n - 0.05
I got ten. Here's the equation.
x = 1/2x + 5
<span>Subtract 1/2x from both sides to get all x's on one side </span>
<span>x - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x + 5 </span>
<span>1/2x = 5 </span>
<span>Now multiple the left by 2 to get x, but since it's an equation, you need to also multiply the right by 2 to keep it =. </span>
<span>2 * 1/2x = 2 * 5 </span>
<span>x = 10 cats</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x+18) - (3x+12)
5x+18=3x+12
5x-3x=2x
18-12=6
2x+6
