Claire collected river water for an experiment. She poured it into 8 jars. Each jar had the mixed number three and one half pints of water. What is the total amount of river water Claire collected?

28 pints of river water.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 1/2 can be represented a decimal by calculating the fraction and adding it to the whole number. In this case, it is 3 + 0.5, or 3.5 pints of water in each jar.

You can then multiply this number by the amount of jars, 8, to get the total number of pints Claire collected.

5/6

step-by-step explanation:

if i remember correctly with perpendicular stuff you just take away the negative

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
