Answer: 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Plugging it into the formula, we get

2x-3 = 8

Add 3 to both sides:

2x = 11

Divide by 2 on both sides:

x = 5.5

Explain how you might use the properties of multiplication to solve 5 × 120 × 6.232 mentally. Then solve.

zysi [14]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we apply the associative property that calculates the given value, which can be defined as follows:

Rule:

$\bold{\to (A\times B)\times C= A \times (B\times C)}$

Let,

$A= 5\\B=120\\C=6.232$

put the value in the above rule:

Solve L.H.S part:

$\to (5\times 120)\times 6.232\\\\\to (600)\times 6.232\\\\\to 3,739.2$

Solve R.H.S part:

$\to 5 \times (120 \times 6.232)\\\\\to 5 \times 747.84\\\\\to 3,739.2$

So, L.H.S=R.H.S

A laptop computer is purchased for $2000. After each year, the resale value decreases by 25%. What will the resale value be afte

wel

Answer:

2000? ... assume $2000

Resale Value = $2000*(1 - 0.25)t/yr

where: t = number of year after purchase

at t = 3 yr

Resale Value = $2000*(1 - 0.25)3 = $843.75

checking: at t = 0 $2000 (purchase price)

at t = 1 yr $2000 - 0.25*$2000 = $2000 - $500 = $1500

at t = 2 yr $1500 - 0.25*$1500 = $1500 - $375 = $1125

at t = 3 yr $1125 - 0.25*$1125 = $1125 - $281.25 = $843.75

Please help!! I don’t understand this.

Mama L [17]

You add all of them together if it’s labeled with a X.
For example, the first X is 1 hour. If it has 2 Xs it would be 2 hours, if no X is shown above, it’s zero hours.
Answer is 12 hours.

Solve the following formula for t. F=J+Jrt

kherson [118]

First, we separate all instances of t by subtracting J from both sides:

F = J + Jrt
F - J = Jrt

Then, we separate the t by dividing both sides by Jr:

$\frac{f - j}{jr} = t$
Therefore, t is equal to (F - J) ÷ Jr
