Thanks for posting your question here. The answer to the above problem is x = <span>48.125. Below is the solution:
</span>
 x+x/7+1/11(x+x/7)=60 
x = x/1 = x • 7/7
x <span>• 7 + x/ 7 = 8x/7 - 60 = 0
</span>x + x/7 + 1/11 <span>• 8x/7 - 60 = 0
</span>8x <span>• 11 + 8x/ 77 = 96x/ 77
</span>96x - 4620 = 12 <span>• (8x-385)
</span>8x - 385 = 0
x = 48.125

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

x = 48.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  x+\frac{x}{7}+ \frac{1}{11}(x+\frac{x}{7})=60

We have to solve for x,

Consider the given expression x+\frac{x}{7}+ \frac{1}{11}(x+\frac{x}{7})=60

First solving for brackets, we get,

x+\frac{x}{7}=\frac{7x+x}{7}=\frac{8x}{7}

Put , we get,

x+\frac{x}{7}+ \frac{1}{11}(\frac{8x}{7})=60

Simplify, we have,

x+\frac{x}{7}+(\frac{8x}{77})=60

Taking LCM(7,77) = 77

We have,

\frac{77x+11x+8x}{77}=60

Simplify, we have,

\frac{96x}{77}=60

Multiply both side by 77, we have,

96x = 60 \times 77

96x =4620

Divide both side by 96, we have,

x=\frac{4620}{96}=48.125

Thus, x = 48.125

Option (a) is correct.

2y-4x=-12 what is the slope intercept
SpyIntel [72]
So you have yo turn it into the correct form first so you add 4x to both sides and come out with 2y=4x-12 them you divide each side by 2 because you have to have to by itself and you come out with y=2x-6 so the slope is 2x and the y intercept is -6

A wheel has a radius of 5 ft what is the minimum number of complete revolutions that the wheel must make it to roll at least a 1
stealth61 [152]
If the radius is 5 ft, the circumference is 10 pi or about 31.4

1000 divided by 31.4 = 31.8

So, it should make a minimum of 32 revolutions to reach 1000 feet.

Is 3/4y=9 true or false
amm1812

<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

Answer:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3 / 4 y = 9

Step 1: Multiply both sides by 4/3.

(4 / 3 ) * ( 3 / 4 y ) = ( 4 / 3 ) * ( 9 )

y = 12

Answer:

y = 12

<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

Insert 12 to the y value:

3 / 4 ( 12 ) = 9

9 = 9

True

<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3
