The solution of the equation which is as described in the task content when expressed in its simplest form is; -5/13.

<h3>What is the solution of the equation as described in the task content?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the solution to the equation is to be determined and expressed in its simplest form.

Given;

-1/2 -1/2(4/5x+1) = -2 -3x

By distributing the coefficients: we have;

-1/2 - 2/5x - 1/2 = -2 -3x

Hence, by collecting like terms; we have;

-1/2 - 1/2 + 2 = -3x + (2/5)x

1 = -13x/5

Therefore; by cross-multiplication; we have;

5 = -13x

Divide both sides by; -13.

x = -5/13.

Ultimately, the solution of the equation which is as described in the task content when expressed in its simplest form is; -5/13.

A truck driver drove 300 miles in 6 3/4 hours. How many miles per hour did the driver drive?
Andru [333]
44.4 miles per hour. You just divide 300 and 6.75 (Think as the 3/4 as quarters each 1 is .25)  then you will get 44.4. To check your answer you would multiply 44.4 and 6.75 and get 299.7. This is not 300 but when you round that .7 to the nearest 10 you will get 300. Hope this helped.<span />
