8 - 2x = -8x + 14 <em>subtract 8 from both sides</em>
-2x = -8x + 6 <em>add 8x to both sides</em>
6x = 6 <em>divide both sides by 6</em>
<h3>x = 1</h3>
Answer:
a. 4 teachers b. 58 students c. 62 people
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 80 by 0.05, you get 4.
Multiply 1160 by 0.05, you get 58.
Add 80 and 1160 together, you get 1240. Multiply 1240 by 0.05, you get 62.
Answer:
Q1
|a-b| = b-a when a<b
Q2
104159/33000
Step-by-step explanation:
Q1
If a<b then a-b will always be negative. To get the absolute value, we can take -(a-b) = -a+b = b-a.
Q2
Let x = 3.12789789789...
We isolate the repeating decimal to start after the decimal, so we multiply by 100.
100x = 312.789789789...
We want to multiply by 10 for each digit that repeats (in this case 3), to get the repeating part to the left of the decimal.
100000x = 312789.789789
Subtracting the two...
x(100000-100) = 312789.789789 - 312.789789
99900x = 312477
x = 312477/99000 = 104159/33000
It is a Kite because right now we are learning about that
