What is the solution to 5(4x-1.5x)+12-2

12.5x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that you want to simplify this, because there is no equal sign.

If you want to simplify, first combine like terms.

First solve the first half of the equation: 20x-7.5x=12.5x

Now solve the second half of the equation: 12-2=10, so we have 12.5x+10.

That's your 12.5x+10

x = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation is 5(4x - 1.5x) + 12 - 2. Simply, you have to solve for x.

First, you have to do distributive property. 5 x 4 and -1.5 (1.5 is negative as I plus-minus.) This will now lead you to have the equation 20x + -7.5x + 12 - 2.

Next, you subtract 12 - 2. Then add 20x + -7.5x. Your equation should be 12.5x = 10.

Since you want x by itself, you will divide all by 12.5 in which 10 divided by 12.5 is 0.8. So your final answer is

x = 0.8

measurement of the swimming pool is given as = 7 yards 4.79 feet

first we will convert this to yards only.

1 foot = 0.33 yards

so, 4.79 feet = yards

so total yards are = yards

now we will convert this in meters.

1 yard = 0.914 meters

8.580 yards = meters

0.842 m = 0.842*100 = 84.2 cm

this becomes 7 meters and 84.2 cm

hence, the pool is 7 meters and 84.2 cm wide.
