Question

Solve for s.
0.5s +1= 7+ 4.58
S =?

Answer 1

Answer: s = 21.16

Explanation:

0.5s + 1 = 7 +4.58 Combine like terms on the right side

0.5s + 1 = 11.58 Subtract 1 from both sides

-1 -1

0.5s = 10.58 Divide both sides by 0.5

s = 21.16

Answer 2

s = 21.16

Explanation:

0.5s +1= 7+ 4.58

Combine like terms

0.5s +1=11.58

Subtract 1 from each side

0.5s +1-1= 11.58-1

.5s = 10.58

Multiply by 2

.5s *2 = 10.58*2

s = 21.16
