Which of the following answers gives the best estimate for x given the following equation?
x over 50−94=189
To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Starting with x/50 - 94 = 189, let's first move the constant term -94 to the other side by adding it to both sides of the equation:
x/50 = 189 + 94
x/50 = 283
To solve for x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 50:
50 * (x/50) = 50 * 283
x = 14150
Therefore, the best estimate for x is 14150.
