Solve the equation:

          5              3
x  –  ——  =  –  ——
          7              7


           5
Add  ——  to both sides, so you get  x  isolated at the left-hand side:
           7

          5          5               3          5
x  –  ——  +  ——  =  –  ——  +  ——
          7           7              7           7

              3          5
x  =  –  ——  +  ——
              7           7


Now, add those fractions at the right-hand side of the equation:

          – 3 + 5
x  =  —————
               7

          2
x  =  ——     <———    this is the answer (first option:  2/7).
          7


I hope this helps. =)

5 more than 3 times a variable, x, is 23
Monica [59]

3x + 5 = 23

5 more than(addition) 3 times(multiplication) a variable(x) is(equals) 23

(you add 5 to 3x)

If you need to solve for "x", you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the equation:

3x + 5 = 23        Subtract 5 on both sides

3x + 5 - 5 = 23 - 5

3x = 18      Divide 3 on both sides to get "x" by itself

\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{18}{3}

x = 6

The circumference of Tyler's bike tire is 72 inches. What is the diameter of the tire?​
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The diameter is 22.92 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I can help you with this question

in this case we know the circumference of a circle, and we need to find out the diameter.

let's remember

the radius of a circle can be defined as

radius=\frac{diameter}{2}\\ or\\diameter=2* radius( equation\ 1)\\

also

circumference=2*\pi  *radius(equation2)\\

Step1

replace the value of the circumference of tyler's bike in equation 2  and isolate radius to find radius

72 inches=2*\pi  *radius\\\\radius=\frac{72}{2*\pi  } \radius =11.46\ inches

Step 2

now, replace the value of radius into equation 1 to find diameter

radius=11.46 in

diameter=2* radius( equation\ 1)\\\\diameter=2*11.46\\diameter=22.92

so, the diameter is 22.92 inches

I really hope it helps, have a great day.
