5(2x-10)+15.5=45 how do i do this? ?

x=24.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.5(2x-10)+15.5=45 distribute -0.5 through the parenthesis

-x+5+15.5=45 add the numbers

-x+20.5=45 move constant to the right side and change its sign

-x=45-20.5 subtract the numbers

-x=24.5 change the signs on both sides of the equation

x=-24.5

Alright mate, lets do some math!
We are trying to find the height of each hay bale right? So we need to divide the volume by the length and the width... so:
H = (10 2/3ft^3) diveded by (1 1/3ft x 4ft)
H = 2 ft
There are 8 bales of hay mate, so we have to multipy that by the H... so 2x8= 16ft.
Hope this helped!
