In this unit, you solved two-step equations. A two-step equation is an equation of the form px + q = r. It takes two steps to solve for the variable x. For example, 3x + (-5) = 19 is a two-step equation. How could you transform this particular equation to create a three-step equation? List several ways you could transform it using common math operations. Next, try solving one of the three-step equations you created for x. (Use a guess and check strategy, if necessary.) What additional step was required to find the solution? In your opinion, is solving a three-step equation more difficult than solving a two-step equation? Why or why not? Do you think there is a limit to the number of steps it takes to solve an equation? Explain.

step-by-step explanation:

15   3/4 / 3 = 5   1/4

answer: the distance

step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the distance d of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) use the formula d (x2 x1)2 (y2 y1)2. to calculate the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) use the formula

the degrees would remain the same ( the number to the left of the decimal point.

the multiply the decimal by 60 to get the minutes and use the numbers to the left of the decimal point.

then multiply the decimal portion of that by 60 for the seconds and round off as needed.

39 .956652

the 39 remains the degrees.

the minutes = 0.956652 x 60 = 57.39912

the minutes = 57

the seconds = 0.39912 x 60 = 23.95 = 24 ( rounded to nearest tenth)

so 39.956652 = 39 degrees, 57 minutes and 24 seconds

-75.159809

the -75 remains the degrees

the minutes = 0.159809 x 60 = 9.58854

the minutes = 9

the seconds = 0.58854 x 60 = 35.31, rounded to nearest tenth = 35.3 seconds

so -75.159809 = -75 degrees, 9 minutes and 35.3 seconds.

the first coordinate is north or south, since it it positive it is north.

the second number is east or west, because it is negative it is west.
