6-7(x+1)= -3(2-x)<br> How do you solve this?

kicyunya [14]

<h3><u>Explanation</u></h3>

Given the equation.

$6 - 7(x + 1) = - 3(2 - x)$

Distribute/Simplify

$6 - 7x - 7 = - 6 + 3x \\ - 1 - 7x = - 6 + 3x$

Solve the equation for x-term by making x as the subject.

$- 1 + 6 = 7x + 3x \\ 5 = 10x \\ \frac{5}{10} = x \\ \frac{1}{2} = x$

Answer Check by substituting the value of x in the equation.

$6 - 7( \frac{1}{2} ) - 7 = - 6 + 3( \frac{1}{2} ) \\ 6 - \frac{7}{2} - 7 = - 6 + \frac{3}{2} \Longrightarrow \sf{You \: \: can \: \: change \: \: sides \: \: to \: \: make \: \: it \: \: easier} \\ 6 - 7 + 6 = \frac{7}{2} + \frac{3}{2} \\ 5 = \frac{10}{2} \\ 5 = 5 \: \green{ \checkmark}$

The equation is true for x = 1/2.

<h3><u>Answer</u></h3>

<u> $\large \boxed{x = \frac{1}{2} } \: \: \: \: \green{ \checkmark}$ </u>

Find the inverse of the function.<br> y=3x–5

PIT_PIT [208]

Step-by-step explanation:

it means that x has now to be the result variable, and y the input variable.

so,

y = 3x - 5

y + 5 = 3x

x = (y + 5)/3

and as a final touch, to make the inverse a "normal function", we rename x to y and y to x and get

y = (x + 5)/3

as the inverse function

Brad buys a pack of 12 bottles of energy drink for £9.25

BARSIC [14]

Step One
Find the cost of one bottle
12 bottles cost 9.25 pounds.
1 bottle costs x

12 / 1 = 9.25/x Cross multiply
12*x = 1 * 9.25 Divide by 12
x = 9.25 / 12
x = 0.77

Remark
0.77 pounds sterling = 77 pennies

Step Two
find the profit on the sale of one bottle
100 - 77 = 23 pennies

Step Three
Find the % profit on one bottle.

% Profit = (profit on one bottle / Cost of 1 bottle.) * 100%
% Profit = (23 / 77) * 100
% Profit = 29.87% <<<<<<<< Answer.
