Answer:

8x - x = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - x = 70

that is equal to 7x = 70

divide by 7 on both sides

x will equal 10

substitute x for 10 in the original equation

you should get 8(10) - 10 = 70

8(10)=80

80 - 10 = 70

8x - x = 70
7x = 70
x = 10 ← one of the numbers

10 * 8 = 80 ← another number

Find three rational numbers between 1 and 0.

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

1/2, 1/4 & 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

mean of 0 &1 is $\frac{0+1}{2} =\frac{1}{2} \\$

mean of 0 and 1/2 is $(0+\frac{1}{2} )/2=\frac{1}{2} /2=\frac{1}{2} *\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{4}$

mean of 1/2 and 1 is $(\frac{1}{2} +1)/2=\frac{3}{2} /2=\frac{3}{2} *\frac{1}{2} =\frac{3}{4}$

So the three rational numbers are 1/2, 1/4 & 3/4
