You can simply collect terms, subtract the constant and divide by the x-coefficient. It is generally considered easier to do those steps if you eliminate fractions first (multiply by 12).
Multiply by 12
... 4(x -1) +3(x +5) = 6
... 4x -4 +3x +15 = 6 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
... 7x +11 = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . .collect terms
... 7x = -5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract the constant 11
... x = -5/7 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient

Here it is the other way.
... x(1/3 +1/4) +(-1/3 +5/4) = 1/2
... (7/12)x + 11/12 = 1/2 . . add the fractions to finish collecting terms
... x + 11/7 = 6/7 . . . . . . . multiply by 12/7
... x = -5/7 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 11/7
At the third step here, you could subtract 11/12 before doing the multiply. You get the same answer, but you have to do the extra conversion of 1/2=6/12.
X • 1.5 = 300
So...
300/ 1.5 = 200
He planted 200 acres last year
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A.
P=(219/800)×(218/799)≈0.0747≈0.075
B.
800-219=581
P=(581/800)×(580/799)≈0.527
c.
P( 1 think role models and one thinks not role models)+P(both thinks they are role models)=(219/800)×(581/799)+(219/800)×(218/799)=(219×581+219×218)/(800×799)
=[219(581+218)]/(800×799)
=(219×799)/(800×799)
=219/800
=0.27375
=0.274
7 because 13-6 is equal to 7
