1. What is first step in solving the equation 20 = 6x - 4
2. 8(x+7) = 0 What is first step in solving the equation?
3. 8/11(x+⅘) = 24/25 solve
4. Tickets are on sale for $1.50 off regular price. Dez buys 6 tickets and spends $51. Write and solve equation for t tickets in form p(x -q) =r
5. I bought 25 guitar picks and 25 strings.. Strings cost $1 more than picks. I spent $50 on both. FInd the cost of one guitar string?
1. The first step in solving the equation 20 = 6x - 4 is to isolate the variable term. Add 4 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the constant term on the right side: 20 + 4 = 6x - 4 + 4. Simplify: 24 = 6x.
2. The first step in solving the equation 8(x+7) = 0 is to distribute the 8 to both terms inside the parentheses. This gives us 8x + 56 = 0.
3. To solve the equation 8/11(x+⅘) = 24/25, the first step is to distribute the fraction 8/11 to the term inside the parentheses. This gives us (8/11) * (x + ⅘) = 24/25.
4. To write and solve the equation for the number of tickets, we can use the formula p(x - q) = r. Let's assume p is the regular price of a ticket, x is the number of tickets, and q is the discount of $1.50. The equation can be written as p(x - q) = r. Plugging in the given values, 1.50(x - 6) = 51. To solve this equation, we can distribute 1.50 to both terms inside the parentheses, which gives us 1.50x - 9 = 51.
5. Let's assume x represents the cost of one guitar pick. Since the cost of the strings is $1 more than the picks, the cost of one string would be x + $1. The equation can be written as 25x + 25(x + $1) = $50. Simplifying, we get 25x + 25x + 25 = $50.
