What value or values of x satisfy 2x + 5.31 = 4.2?
1 answer:
Answer: x can equal -3.2 or -7.4.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct expression is:
2|x+5.3|=4.2
So, we have an absolute value equation, where it can be positive or negative:
2 (x+5.3)=4.2
2x+10.6 =4.2
2x=4.2-10.6
2x = -6.4
x= -6.4/2
x = -3.2
2[-(x+5.3)]=4.2
-2x-10.6 =4.2
-2x= 4.2+10.6
-2x= 14.8
x= 14.8/-2
x= -7.4
x can equal -3.2 or -7.4.

Step-by-step explanation:
no of days no of men
30 20
24 20
30/24=x/20
24 x=30*20
24x=600
x=600/24
x=25
therefore 5 more men are needed to complete the work in 24 days
The answer is 3 1/2 divided by 1 1/2 because those equal 7.
