3 and 1/2 can be rewritten as a fraction as 7/2.
7 can be written as 7/1.
When dividing by a fraction, simply multiply by the reciprocal.
7/2*1/7.
Then, cross multiply across the top.
7*1=7
2*7=14
So it's 7/14, which can be reduced to 1/2.
4 + 2x = 12
-------------------------------------
Take away 4 from both sides:
-------------------------------------
2x = 8
-------------------------------------
Divide by 2 on both sides:
-------------------------------------
x = 4
-------------------------------------
Answer: x = 4

Christy should make at least 30 bracelets and at most 40 necklaces to maximize profit
<h3>How to determine how many bead of each type of bracelets and necklaces should Christy make to maximize his profit?</h3>
The given parameters can be represented in the following tabular form:
Bracelet (x) Necklace (y) Total
Labor (hour) 0.5 0.75 40
Profit 10 18
From the above table, we have the following:
Objective function:
Max P = 10x + 18y
Subject to:
0.5x + 0.75y <= 40
Because she wants to make at least 30 bracelets, we have:
x >= 30
So, we have:
Max P = 10x + 18y
Subject to:
0.5x + 0.75y <= 40
x >= 30
Express x >= 30 as equation
x = 30
Substitute x = 30 in 0.5x + 0.75y <= 40
0.5 * 30 + 0.75y <= 40
This gives
15 + 0.75y <= 40
Subtract 15 from both sides
0.75y <= 30
Divide by 0.75
y <= 40
Hence, Christy should make at least 30 bracelets and at most 40 necklaces to maximize profit

a. n-(n - 1) = 1
b. n( n - 1) = n² - n
c. (n - 1) + n = 2n - 1
d. (n - 1) + n = 2n - 1
<h3>Solution:</h3>
General Rule for Equation Solving
- Remove parentheses and combine like terms to simplify each side of the equation.
- To isolate the variable term on one side of the equation, use addition or subtraction.
- To find the variable, use multiplication or division.
Given two consecutive numbers , (n - 1) , n
simplifying :
n - (n - 1)
= n -1(n - 1)
= n - n + 1
= 1
multiplying :
n( n -1)
= n² - n
simplifying :
(n-1) + n
= n - 1 + n
= 2n -1
by adding two numbers :
(n - 1) + n
= n -1 + n
= 2n - 1
