Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 4 - x = 0

add 4 to both sides 5x - x = 4

simplify 4x = 4

divide both sides by 4 to get x = 1

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 4 from both sides which you add to the zero. Then, combine like terms, 5x - 1x which is 4x. Divide 4 from both sides and it equals 1.

what is the value of the reciprocal of $\frac{-2}{5}$? express your answer as a decimal to the nearest tenth.

olga2289 [7]

The reciprocal of -2/5, expressed as a decimal to the nearest tenth is: -2.5.

<h3>What is the Reciprocal of a Number?</h3>

The reciprocal of a number can be described as the inverse of that number. For example, if a is given as a real number, therefore, the reciprocal of a would be 1/a.

Another example is a/b. The reciprocal of a/b is b/a.

Thus, the reciprocal of -2/5 is -5/2.

Expressing this as a decimal, we would have:

-5/2 = 2.5 (nearest tenth).

Therefore, the reciprocal of -2/5, expressed as a decimal to the nearest tenth is: -2.5.

One watering system needs about three times as long to complete a job as another warning system when both systems operate at the

algol13

Answer:

One watering system requires 36 minutes to complete the job alone while another watering system requires 12 minutes to complete the job alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Both the system can complete the job = 9 minutes

We need find the time required by each system to do the job.

Solution:

Let the time required by another watering system to complete the job be 'x' mins.

Now given:

One watering system needs about three times as long to complete a job as another watering system.

Time required by one watering system = $3x$

Rate to complete the job by another watering system = $\frac{1}{x}\ job/min$

Rate to complete the job by One watering system = $\frac{1}{3x}\ job/min$

Rate at which both can complete the job = $\frac{1}{9}\ job/min$

So we can say that;

Rate at which both can complete the job is equal to sum of Rate to complete the job by another watering system and Rate to complete the job by One watering system.

framing in equation form we get;

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{3x}=\frac19$

Now taking LCM to make the denominator common we get;

$\frac{1\times3}{x\times 3}+\frac{1\times1}{3x\times1}=\frac19\\\\\frac{3}{3x}+\frac{1}{3x}=\frac19\\\\\frac{3+1}{3x}=\frac{1}{9}\\\\\frac{4}{3x}=\frac{1}{9}$

By Cross multiplication we get;

$4\times9 =3x\\\\3x =36$

Dividing both side by 3 we get;

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{36}{3}\\\\x=12\ min$

Time required by One watering system = $3x =3\times 12 =36\ min$

Hence One watering system requires 36 minutes to complete the job alone while another watering system requires 12 minutes to complete the job alone.
