To find the best estimate for x in the equation x/50 - 94 = 189, we can first combine like terms by adding 94 to both sides of the equation:
x/50 = 189 + 94
x/50 = 283
Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 50 to isolate x:
50 * (x/50) = 50 * 283
x = 14,150
Therefore, the best estimate for x is 14,150.
Out of the given options, the best estimate for x is 15,000.
Which of the following answers gives the best estimate for x given the following equation?
x/50−94=189
