Solve the following equation. then place the correct number in the box provided. x/1.2=15

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to solve is:

This basically means, "what number" (x), divided by 1.2 would give us 15??

We can cross multiply and simply solve for x:

Correct answer x = 18

x=18

Step-by-step explanation:

x/1.2=15

Multiply each side by 1.2

x/1.2 * 1.2 =15 * 1.2

x = 18

answer: the common difference is -0.10

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
