Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 8(x + 5) = 6 - 3x
Remember to follow PEMDAS. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, distribute -8 to all terms within the parenthesis
-8(x + 5) = (-8)(x) + (-8)(5) = -8x - 40
5x - 8x - 40 = 6 - 3x
Isolate the variable (x). Add 3x & 40 to both sides
5x - 8x (+3x) - 40 (+40) = 6 (+40) - 3x (+3x)
5x - 8x + 3x = 6 + 40
Simplify. Combine like terms
(5x - 8x + 3x) = (6 + 40)
0 = 46 ; False 0 ≠ 46 ∴ no solution is your answer

The larger value is 9 x 10^9
The smaller value is 3 x 10^(-4)
Divide the larger over the smaller
Doing so will have you divide the coefficients 9 and 3 (numbers in front of the "times ten to the..." portions) to get 9/3 = 3.
Then you'll also subtract the exponents: 9 minus (-4) = 9 - (-4) = 9 + 4 = 13
In summary so far, we got a coefficient of 3 and an exponent of 13
So the final answer is 3 x 10^13 (assuming you want scientific notation)
If you want to convert to standard notation, instead of scientific notation, move the decimal point in 3.0 thirteen spots to the right to get
30,000,000,000,000
there are 13 zeros (four groups of 3 plus one just after the 3) in that value above. This is the number 30 trillion

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Set up equations (L= Lisa; M = Maria; A = April; J = Jim)</em>
L = 12M
A = 2J
<em>Substitute x for Maria and 6x for Jim</em>
L = 12x
A = 2(6x) = 12x
<em>So, you get:</em>
Maria = x
Jim = 6x
Lisa = 12x
April = 12x
5 x 1 = 5
5 x 2 = 10
5 x 3 = 15
5 x 7 = 35
