Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 1 2/5 to a improper fraction so you will get 7/5.

So the equation becomes (7/5)x=7

Then multiply both sides by the inverse of 7/5 which is 5/7.

The equation becomes x=7(5/7)

So we have x=5.

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation  1\frac{2}{5} x = 7  and we want to solve for x. The first thing we want to do with equations with fractions is multiply the whole equation by the LCM of the denominator (if there is more than 2 denominators) but we only have one denominator so we multiply the whole equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction and make solving the equation easier

→ 1\frac{2}{5} x = 7

⇒ Convert 1\frac{2}{5} into improper

→ \frac{7}{5} x=7

⇒ Multiply the whole equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction

→ 7x = 35

⇒ Divide both sides by 7 to isolate and find the value of x

→ x = 5

10 The collection of distinct vowel letters from the words PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOCONIOSIS​
irina1246 [14]

The collection of distinct vowel letters from the words PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOCONIOSIS​

The words' vowel letters are [A,,E,I,O,U].

A, E, I, O, U, Y, and, as we'll see, W are vowels, but let's go more precise now. They are symbols (letters) that represent a certain kind of spoken sound called a vowel. According to phoneticians, a vowel is a spoken sound that is made without severely limiting the airflow from the lungs.

The alphabet consists of 26 letters, five of which are vowels (a, e, I, o, and u). The other letters are consonants. A vowel is a sound made by opening the mouth and allowing air to escape without closing it or clearing the throat.

Ja'kniya and Alayjah are shopping at the Apple Store. Ja'kniya bought 4 screensavers and 3 Otterboxes for $29. Alayjah bought 6
Katarina [22]

Answer:  Each screensaver costs $2 and each Otterbox costs $7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Cost of each screensaver and y = cost of each Otterbox.

As per given, 4x+3y=29       (i)

6x +2y = 26  (ii)

Divide both sides of (i) by 2 and the multiply it by 3 on sides , we get

9x+3y=39    (iii)

Eliminate (i) from (iii) , we get

5x = 10

⇒ x = 2  [Divide both sides by 5]

Put value of x in (i), we get

4(2)+3y=29

⇒ 8+3y= 29

⇒ 3y= 21

⇒ y =7 [Divide both sides by 7]

Hence, Each screensaver costs $2 and each Otterbox costs $7.
