X=6y

sum of their reciprocals
(1/x)+(1/y)=7
x=6y
1/6y+1/y=7
1/6y+6/6y=7
7/6y=7
times both sides by 6y
7=42y
divide both sides by 42
1/6=y

x=6y
x=6(1/6)
x=6/6
x=1

the numbers are 1 and 1/6

-5x=25 how to solve this problem ​
Sidana [21]
X = -5

The goal of this problem is to solve for x.

To solve x in this problem you need to find a way to get it by itself on the left side, the way to do this is divide -5x by -5.

You then also have to do the same for the right side. This gives you -5.

A realtor makes a commission of $11,400 on a $190,000 house he sells. What is his commission rate?
Reika [66]
So bassically
his commision rate is
x% times 190000=comission
so x% times 190000=11400
divide both sdies by 190000
x%=11400/190000
solve for x percent
11400/190000=114/1900=3/50
x%=3/50
percent means parts out of 100 so x%=x/100
x/100=3/50
3/50=6/100
x/100=6/100
multiply both sdies by 100
x=6

the commision rate is 6%
