Answer:

for me its 8

Step-by-step explanation:

im not that sure

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]12.45=4.95+0.5\timesx[/tex]×x

Solve the equation

[tex]12.45=4.95+0.5x[/tex]

Rearrange variables to the left side of the equation

[tex]-0.5x=4.95-12.45[/tex]

Calculate the sum or difference

[tex]-0.5x=-7.5[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable

[tex]x=\frac{-7.5}{-0.5}[/tex]

Determine the sign for multiplication or division

[tex]x=\frac{7.5}{0.5}[/tex]

Multiply both the numerator and denominator with the same integer

[tex]x=\frac{75}{5}[/tex]

Cross out the common factor

[tex]x=15[/tex]

I hope this helps you
