Answer: x = 5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
1/3 (x + 1) + 2x = 2
(1/3) (x) + (1/3) (1) + 2x = 2 (Distribute)
1/3x + 1/3 + 2x = 2
(1/3x + 2x) + (1/3) = 2 (Combine Like Terms)
7/3x + 1/3 = 2
Step 2: Subtract 1/3 from both sides.
7/3x + 1/3 - 1/3 = 2 - 1/3
7/3x = 5/3
Step 3: Multiply both sides by 3/7.
(3/7) * (7/3x) = (3/7) * (5/3)
Answer: x = 5/7
4x2 - 7x = 3x + 24
First we rewrite the quadratic equation:
4x2 - 7x - 3x - 24 = 0
4x2 - 10x - 24 = 0
The solutions to the quadratic equation in this case are:
x1 = 4
x2 = -1.5
Answer:
x = -3/2
x = 4
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
8 -(x+5) = 5x - 3
-(x+5) ---> -1 (x +5) = -x - 5
8 - x - 5 = 5x -3 8 - 5 = 3
-x + 3 = 5x - 3
+x +x
3 = 6x - 3
+3 +3
6 = 6x
/6 /6
<u>x = 1</u>
In math, "of" almost always means "times".
"The property" is 7/8 acre.
So "1/4 of the property" means "1/4 times 7/8 acre".
1/4 x 7/8 = (1 x 7) / (4 x 8)
That's 7/32 .
Mr. Lopez hasn't plowed up anything yet, but his plan is to plow up 7/32 acre for his garden.
Simplify the expression:
8(2x - 3) - 6x = 8×2x - 8×3 - 6x = 16x - 24 - 6x = 10x - 24
for x=3
put value of "x" to the expression:
<u>10×3 - 24 = 30 - 24 = 6</u>
