To answer the question above, we translate the word problem into mathematical equation. The left side of the equation is,
x/2 - 2.25 = 3.6 + 4x
The value of x from the equation is -1.67.
x/2 - 2.25 = 3.6 + 4x
The value of x from the equation is -1.67.
Answer:
[tex]\frac{x}{2}-2.25=3.6+4x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
two and twenty five hundredths less than the quotient of x and two is equal to the sum of three and six tenths and quadruple of x.
The unknown number is x. the quotient of x and two can be written as [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]
two and twenty five hundredths can be written as 2.25
two and twenty five hundredths less than the quotient of x and two can be written as [tex]\frac{x}{2}-2.25[/tex]
The above expression is equal to the sum of three and six tenths and quadruple of x.
three and six tenths can be written as 3.6 and quadruple of x is 4x
[tex]\frac{x}{2}-2.25=3.6+4x[/tex]
