GP 4 Week 9 (DUE 5/27)

How old am I if 400 reduced by 2 times my age is 244?

  1. So i put my equation into this 400 -2x=244. I moved 400 next to 244 and got -2x=244+400. i subtract 400 to 244 and got -156. Then divided -156 by -2 and got x=78. You are 78 years old.

    400 - 2*Age = 244 -2*Age = -156 Age = this would make them 78 years old. this is how I got this answer to this question

    My equation was 400-2x+244 then i changed it into -2x=400+244 .I then subtracted 400- 244 and got the answer of -155. Then i divided the answer by -2 getting 78 years old.

  4. You are 78 years old. You do a two step equation so you set it up like this 400-2x=244. first you subtract 400 from both sides so now its -2x=244-400 which is -156. Then you divide that by -2 and get 78. So thats how i got my answer

  5. Write the equation 400-2x=2. Then subtract 400-244 which equals -156. Divide -156 by 2 which equals 78.

    I setup the equation like this 400-2x=244.
    244-400= -156
    then divide that then by -2 and you get 78.

    So first you make the equation of 400-2x=244.Then you got to subtract 400 from 244 which equals 156.That leaves 2x=156.Then you didid 2 by 156 which is 78. So therefore You are 78 years old.

  10. Since the equation for the problem is 400-2x=244, I moved the 400 next to 244 to make it into -2x=244+400. Then I subtracted 400 from 244 to get -156. Finally I divided -156 by -2 to get 78 to equal x. So in total, you are 78 years old.
