Postby PSW » Sun Sep 05, 2004 4:50 pm

Here's a standard algebraic equation, pay attention to EVERY detail.  ;D ;D

The goal is to solve for 3x, there are fourteen tips to help you along. Good luck !





1. x < 1.5 , but 3x > 2x. 2x < 10



2. x cannot be negative.




3. 2/5 of half of x is 50% of 60% of 250.



4. X can be an integer or a decimal number.



5. 10x = (4 x 5 x j )

I wondered why you did that...  I heck of a lot of it didn't make sense.

I read the first 3...... then thought you had to be wasting time.... so I scrolled down to near the bottom and looked for clues....  But then again.....  I have enough Maths at school, where it gets much harder than some of that.
If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.
