OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=3

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

it's not x equals 3

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

\[x2=9\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x=9 divide by 2 abd x= 9/2 or 4.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i appolize

OpenStudy (angela210793):

@watchman....didn't get it...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

an equation, yes?

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

yes

OpenStudy (watchmath):

the question doesn't ask for x. It is asking what is 2x=9. What object 2x=9 is, which is an equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

unless the question is "solve for x" or "what must x be to make this a true statement" or something like that

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

yeah

OpenStudy (angela210793):

O.o I'm confused........how do u solve tht?

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

do x2=8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you "solve" by dividing both sides by 2, or else just asking yourself "2 times what number is 9?'

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

no

OpenStudy (angela210793):

so =4.5.......right?

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

no

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

it's 4

OpenStudy (angela210793):

y 4?

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

no x equals 4

OpenStudy (angela210793):

I still don't get it....

OpenStudy (igloo3000):

go find it out

OpenStudy (angela210793):

''thnx 4 help''

OpenStudy (anonymous):
