[x-1]=5x+10
We have two equations:
1) x-1=5x+10
x-1=5x+10
x-5x=10+1
-4x=11
x=-11/4
2) x-1=-(5x+10)
x-1=-(5x+10)
x-1=-5x-10
x+5x=-10+1
6x=-9
x=-9/6=-3/2
we have two possible solutions:
solution₁; x=-11/4
solution₂: x=-3/2
we check it out:
1) x=-11/4
[x-1]=5x+10
[-11/4 - 1]=5(-11/4)+10
[(-11-4)/4]=-55/4 + 10
[-15/4]=(-55+40) /4
15/4≠-15/4 This solution don´t work.
2) x=-3/2
[x-1]=5x+10
[-3/2 - 1]=5(-3/2)+10
[(-3-2)/2]=-15/2 + 10
[-5/2]=(-15+20)/2
5/2=5/2; this solution works.
Therefore:
Answer: x=-3/2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Cost Price (CP) = Rs 460
Profit % (P%) = 5%
Now,
Profit Amount (P) = P% * CP
= ( 5/100) * Rs 460
= Rs 460/20 = Rs 23
Answer:
Debbie runs 9 feet per second: 9 ft/s
Jessica runs 1 mile in 440 seconds: 414/50 ft/s = 207/25 ft/s = 8 7/25 ft/s
jesssica runs 131 feet in 10 seconds: since 1 mile = 5280 ft we have 1/470 mi/s = 5280/470 ft/s = 528/47 ft/s = 11 11/47 ft/s
ron runs 603 feet in 1 minute: 547 ft/min = 603/60 ft/s = 201/20 ft/s = 10 1/20 ft/s
Since:
11 11/47 > 10 1/20 > 9 > 8 7/25
Emily runs the fastest.
Answer:
1. 16.62d + 26 = m 2. $152.34
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first part of the question you put the unknown variable multiplied by 16.62. Then add 26 which equals an unknown variable. For the second part, I multiplied 16.62 by 7 and added 26.
