24 / 0.05 = 480 nickels <====
Cost of the toothbrush and the toothpaste together = $1.10
Let us assume the cost of the toothpaste = x
Then
The cost of the toothbrush is = (x + 1) dollar
Then we can write the equation as
x + x+ 1 = 1.10
2x + 1 = 1.10
2x = 1.10 - 1
2x = 0.10
x = 0.10/2
= .05 dollars
So the cost of the toothpaste is 0.05 dollars.<span>I hope
the procedure is clear to you.</span>
Answer: 1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Steps:
(x-2)=4x
Pretend that there is a one in front of x-2
1(x-2)=4x
Multiply the bracket by 1
x-2=4x
Move x to the other side .Whenever you move a number or letter the sign changes.
x-x-2=4x-x
-2=3x
Divide by 3 for -2 and 3
-2/3=3/3 x
x=-2/3
Check answer by using substitution method
(-2/3-2)=4(-2/3)
(-2/3-6/3)=-8/3
-8/3=-8/3
Answer is -2/3
