Answer 2

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to manipulate the equation to get ddd by itself.

0.5(7d+4)

3.5d+2

5d+2

5d+2−2

5d

5

5d

​  

 

d

​  

 

=7−1.5d

=7−1.5d          Distribute

=7−1.5d+1.5d          Add 1.5d to each side

=7          Combine like terms

=7−2          Subtract 2 from each side

=5          Combine like terms

=  

5

5

​  Divide each side by 5

=1          Simplify
