Complete question:

Which equation accurately represents this statement? Check all that apply.

Negative 3 less than 4.9 times a number, x, is the same as 12.8

A: -3-4.9x=12.8

B: 4.9x-(-3)=12.8

C: 3+4.9x=12.8

D: (4.9-3)x=12.8

E:  12.8=4.9x+3

B: 4.9x-(-3)=12.8

C: 3+4.9x=12.8

E:  12.8=4.9x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The word equation can be expressed mathematically as follows

negative 3  → -3

less than 4.9 times a number , x →  4.9 x - (-3)

is same as 12.8  → 4.9 x - (-3) = 12.8

The equation can be expressed as

4.9 x - (-3) = 12.8

when you open the bracket, you multiply  -3 time  - 1 . MInus times minus is equals to plus. so you get

4.9 x + 3 = 12.8

12.8 = 4.9x+3

X = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

4.9x - (-3) = 12.8

4.9x = 12.8 + (-3)

4.8x - 12.8 = -3

Can be three different forms

To solve:

4.9x = 12.8 - 3

4.9x = 9.8

x = 2

the correct answer is 828.07
