write a 2 step equation:
half a dollar minus five dollars equals fifteen dollars:
n/2 -5 = 15
five hours more than one half of an hour equals fifteen hours:
n/2 + 5 = 15
two less than three times the number of feet of fencing required equals twelve feet: 3n -2 = 12
eight less than the quotient of daves gold score and 4 equals negative five
i got: s/4 -8 = -5
three times gails age increased by 2 years equals twelve years
i got: 3n +2 = 12
eight fewer than 4 times the elevation of a city equals negative five
4e - 8 = -5
can you check these? thank you
Sure, let's check them:
1. Half a dollar minus five dollars equals fifteen dollars:
n/2 - 5 = 15
To solve this equation, you can start by isolating n/2:
n/2 = 15 + 5
n/2 = 20
Now, multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for n:
n = 2 * 20
n = 40
So, the equation is correct.
2. Five hours more than one half of an hour equals fifteen hours:
n/2 + 5 = 15
To solve this equation, start by subtracting 5 from both sides:
n/2 = 15 - 5
n/2 = 10
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2:
n = 2 * 10
n = 20
The equation is correct.
3. Two less than three times the number of feet of fencing required equals twelve feet:
3n - 2 = 12
To solve this equation, add 2 to both sides:
3n = 12 + 2
3n = 14
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
n = 14/3
The equation seems incorrect. Please double-check your work for any mistakes.
4. Eight less than the quotient of Dave's gold score and 4 equals negative five:
s/4 - 8 = -5
To solve this equation, add 8 to both sides:
s/4 = -5 + 8
s/4 = 3
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4:
s = 4 * 3
s = 12
The equation is correct.
5. Three times Gail's age increased by 2 years equals twelve years:
3n + 2 = 12
To solve this equation, subtract 2 from both sides:
3n = 12 - 2
3n = 10
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
n = 10/3
The equation seems incorrect. Please double-check your work for any mistakes.
6. Eight fewer than 4 times the elevation of a city equals negative five:
4e - 8 = -5
To solve this equation, add 8 to both sides:
4e = -5 + 8
4e = 3
Divide both sides of the equation by 4:
e = 3/4
The equation is correct.
Based on the review, equations 1, 2, 4, and 6 are correct. Equations 3 and 5 might have errors.
Yes, I can check these equations for you. Here are the corrected versions:
1. "Half a dollar minus five dollars equals fifteen dollars":
The correct equation is: (0.5 - 5) = 15
2. "Five hours more than one half of an hour equals fifteen hours":
The correct equation is: (0.5/2 + 5) = 15
3. "Two less than three times the number of feet of fencing required equals twelve feet":
The correct equation is: (3n - 2) = 12
4. "Eight less than the quotient of Dave's gold score and 4 equals negative five":
The correct equation is: (s/4 - 8) = -5
5. "Three times Gail's age increased by 2 years equals twelve years":
The correct equation is: (3g + 2) = 12
6. "Eight fewer than 4 times the elevation of a city equals negative five":
The correct equation is: (4e - 8) = -5
