4(x + 7) = 38
Since there is no operation sign between the 4 and parenthesis, it makes it an automatic multiplication problem.
You would use distributive property to multiply each which should leave your equation looking like this afterwards:
4x + 28 = 38
(4 times x and 4 times 7)
You would then solve it like a two step equation,
1. +28 - 28 = 0
2. 38 - 28 = 10
4x = 10
10 divided by 4 = 2.5
x = 2.5
We can recheck our work by substituting in the value of x.
4(2.5 + 7) = 38
10 + 28 = 38
When we substituted in the value, it gave us the correct inequality.
Therefore,
x = 2.5
Answer:
Option: B
There are three times as many participants in the 40-59 age group than in the 0-19 age group.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the histogram we have following observations:
Number of people in the age group 0-19= 20
Number of people in the age group 20-39=40
Number of people in the age group 40-59=60
Number of people in the age group 60-79=50
Hence, from the data we could say that there are three times as many participants in the 40-59 age group( which is 60) than in the 0-19 age group(which is 20).
Hence, option B is correct.
Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
P- parentheses
E- exponential
M- multiplication
D- division
A- addition
S- subtraction
2 x 36 = 72
72 - 24 ÷ 6
24 ÷ 6 = 4
72 - 4 = 68
