Since the price of the cantaloupes is unknown, it will have to represented by a variable. Let's use x.
If Jackson starts with $25 and buys 5 cantaloupes of an unknown price, this subtracts 5 times the amount of 1 cantaloupe (which is x) from that $25.
This is shown as 25 - 5x.
After spending that money, he has $2.50 left over.
This means 25 - 5x = 2.50.
Now you just need to solve this by first isolating the variable.
First, subtract 25 from both sides.
25 - 5x - 25 = -5x
2.50 - 25 = -22.5
Then, divide both sides by -5. It's -5 since 5 is the coefficient and it's negative, so -5.
-5x / -5 = x
-22.5 / -5 = 4.5
This means x = 4.5.
And if x is 4.5, then that means the cost of 1 cantaloupe is $4.50.
Answer:
64=4(a-44)
Step-by-step explanation:
64=4(a-44)
64=4a-176
64+176=4a
240=4a
4a=240
a=240/4
a=60 years old
Answer:
0.83 miles per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
The speed of the car can be found by dividing the distance by the time. THe distance is 258 miles and the time is 312 minutes.
Answer:
6 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula is expressed as;
D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
D = √(2-4)²+(8-2)²
D = √(-2)²+(6)²
D = √4 + 36
AD = √40
AD = 6.32
Hence the approximate distance between the library and the mall is 6 miles
As written, it is interpreted to mean 14·22·350·x = 107800x.
