What is -4x-5=6-11x? Please show work

1 answer:

3 0

First, you would add 11x to both sides, because you are trying to separate the variable pieces and the constants (integers).

If performed correctly, you would get the equation
7x-5=6

Then, you would add 5 to both sides, to get the 7x alone.

This results in the equation 7x=11

Then, to get x alone, without a coefficient, you would need to divide both sides by 7.

x=11/7

What is the solution to StartFraction 5 over 6 EndFraction x minus one-third greater-than 1 and one-third?

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is x > 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > 1\dfrac{1}{3}$

An inequality compares two quantities unlike an equality. An inequality is written with either a greater than ( > ) or lower than ( < ) or greater than equal to ( $\geq$ ) or less than equal to ( $\leq$ ) signs. We solve the above given inequality to find the solutions of the unknown x.

$\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > 1\dfrac{1}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > \dfrac{4}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x > \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{4}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x > \dfrac{5}{3}\\x > 2$

Firstly we change the right hand side quantity to fraction.

We then transfer the - $\frac{1}{3}$ to the right hand side and add them. The inequality sign does not change as we are simply adding or subtracting terms from both the ends.

Finally we divide both sides with $\frac{6}{5}$ to get the required solution. The inequality sign does not change as we are multiplying both the ends with a positive quantity.

This gives us the answer as x > 2.

If I had 36 apples what is the percentage of 20

boyakko [2]

Answer:

20 apples is 55.55% of 36 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that I had 36 apples, to determine what is the percentage of 20 of them, the following calculation must be performed:

36 = 100

20 = X

(20 x 100) / 36 = X

2000/36 = X

55.55 = X

Therefore, 20 apples is 55.55% of 36 apples.

HELP ME WITH MATH!!! So basically I have to figure out how many hours that is between the times.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: (I think its correct)

1: 8 hours and 30 minutes

2: 8 hours

3: 8 hours and 50 minutes

4: 8 hours and 45 minutes

5: 7 hours and 48 minutes

6: 11 hours 13 minutes

7: 11 hours 31 minute

Step-by-step explanation: (Im bad at explaining it)

So I got this by using counting the hours in between the times and taking out the minutes in them,then subtracting the time they took the fall asleep. Every time that has minutes I add that, if it is over 60 minutes I subtract 60 minutes. So like 30+35=65 | 65-60=5.

Lets do a problem: 9:15 (bed) | 10:30(woke up) | 30 minutes (fall asleep)

So we count how many hours in each time and we take out the minutes, so 9:00, 10:00, 11:00, so on and so forth.

So in between the hours its was 13. Then we add the minutes (15+30)

15+30=45. So the answer is 13 hours and 45 minutes, but we got to subtract 13 hours and 45 minutes which is 13 hours and 15 minutes.

Final Answer: 13 hours and 15 minutes.
