5(
+ x) would be your answer. The 5 and the parenthesis imply multiplication, and inside the parenthesis is one-half and a number being added.)
Answer:
4 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to gte the denominators the same!
So we multiply the 1/4 by 2
1/4 x 2 = 2/8
Now we subtract the 2/8 from 5 1/8 to get our answer :)
5 1/8 - 2/8 = 4 7/8
Your final answer will be 4 7/8 :)
Have a great day!

The unit rate of 32 is 12
Sound travels 10200m farther through stone in 17 seconds than through aluminium
Speed of sound in aluminium = 3100 m/s
The speed of sound in stone = 3700 m/s
Time taken = 17 minutes
Distance traveled = Speed x Time
Distance traveled by sound in aluminium in 17 seconds = 3100 x 17
Distance traveled by sound in aluminium in 17 seconds = 52700 m
Distance traveled by sound in stone in 17 seconds = 3700 x 17
Distance traveled by sound in stone in 17 seconds = 62900 m
Difference in the distance traveled = 62900 - 52700
Difference in the distance traveled = 10200 m
Sound travels 10200m farther through stone in 17 seconds than through aluminium

Part A: Charlie's answer is incorrect
In step 2 of Charlie's answer he subtracted 5 from each side. Since 5x is multiplication, he must DIVIDE each side by 5 to get x by itself. The problem should have worked out like this...
Step 1: 5x = 30
Step 2: x = 30/5
Step 3: x = 6
Part B: There is only 1 solution for this problem.
