First we have to get x by itself, so we multiply two on each side,
then we get 5x=660/4, I like to simplify here, so I would change it to 5x=165, then we divide each side by 5
x=33
:)
When you have this type of problem, you need to combine the like-terms and isolate the variable.
3x + 122 = 22x - 11
Add 11 to both sides to get rid of it
3x + 122 + 11 = 22x - 11 + 11 (-11 + 11=0)
3x + 133 = 22x
Then you would bring the 3x to the other side, so subtract 3x from both sides
3x + 133 = 22x
-3x -3x
133 = 22x - 3x
133 = 19x
Then divide both sides by 19 to isolate x
133/19 = 19x/19
133/19 = 7, so x = 7
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
7 1/8 or 7.125
Step-by-step explanation:
first subsitute z for 4
28/4 - 4/4 + 1 1/8
then do 28/4 - 4/4 which is 6,
add that to 1 1/8
and get 7 1/8
The answer is A. There is no multiplication sign in the problem. It’s all division.
There are 33/20 or 1.65 pounds left.
Given:
4 3/4 pounds of clay
1 1/10 pounds of clay for a cup
2 pounds of clay for a jar
Convert the mixed fraction into fractions.
4 3/4 = (4*4+3)/4 = 19/4
1 1/10 = (1*10+1)/10 = 11/10
2 = 2/1
19/4 - 11/10 = (19/4 *5/5) - (11/10 * 2/2) = 95/20 - 22/20
= (95-22)/20 = 73/20 or 3.65 pounds after making a cup
73/20 - 2/1 = 73/20 - (2/1 * 20/20) = 73/20 - 40/20 = 73 - 40 / 20 = 33/20 OR 1.65 pounds left after making a jar.
We can also convert the fractions into decimal numbers.
19/4 = 4.75
11/10 = 1.10
2/1 = 2.00
4.75 - 1.1 - 2 = 1.65 pounds left.
