The value of x in the equation x + 0.97 = -2 is -2 - 0.97 = -2.97.
What is the solution of the equation x − 9/4 = −3/8 ?(1 point)
To find the value of x in the equation x + 0.97 = -2, we can start by isolating x on one side of the equation.
Subtract 0.97 from both sides of the equation:
x + 0.97 - 0.97 = -2 - 0.97
Simplifying the equation, we get:
x = -2 - 0.97
Combining the two numbers, we have:
x = -2.97
Therefore, the value of x in the equation x + 0.97 = -2 is -2.97.
To find the value of x in the equation x + 0.97 = -2, we need to isolate the variable x.
First, we can subtract 0.97 from both sides of the equation to get rid of the constant term on the left side:
x + 0.97 - 0.97 = -2 - 0.97
Simplifying the equation, we have:
x = -2 - 0.97
Next, we can subtract the values on the right side:
x = -2 - 0.97
Calculating the subtraction, we have:
x = -2.97
Therefore, the value of x in the equation x + 0.97 = -2 is -2.97.
To solve for x in the equation x - 9/4 = -3/8, we need to isolate x.
First, let's get rid of the fraction 9/4 by adding 9/4 to both sides of the equation:
x - 9/4 + 9/4 = -3/8 + 9/4
This simplifies to:
x = -3/8 + 9/4
Next, let's find a common denominator for the fractions -3/8 and 9/4, which is 8:
x = (-3/8)(2/2) + (9/4)(2/2)
This simplifies to:
x = -6/16 + 18/16
Now, we can add the fractions:
x = -6/16 + 18/16
x = 12/16
Finally, we can simplify the fraction:
x = 3/4
Therefore, the solution of the equation is x = 3/4.
