4/9 + (x-1) = 28/9 - (x-7x) + 1
4/9 + x - 1 = 28/9 - x + 7x + 1
-5/9 + x = 37/9 + 6x
-5x = 42/9
-5x = 4.6 (repeating 6)
x = -0.93 (repeating 3)
Hope this helps! ;)
Answer:
One number is 17 and the other is 85.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be m and n. Let m = (1/5)n. Note that m+n = 18.
Substituting (1/5)n for m in the 2nd equation, we get (1/5)n + (5/5)n = 18. Multiplying all three terms by 5 to remove fractions, we get n + 5 = 90, so that n = 85. m is (1/5) of 85, or m = 17.
The decimal gives after the 9. There are four places behind the decimal between the two numbers being multiplied so there have to be 4 places behind the decimal in your answer.
