Hey there!
We'll define "the number" as x. We know that "is" signifies an equals sign and therefore an equation, and we're going to be adding six to five times x. Therefore, we have:
5x + 6 = 26
Add -6 to both sides:
5x = 20
Divide both sides by 5 to get:
x = 4
So, 4 is the number.
Hope this helps!
1) The ratio of used books to all books is 6:14
2) The ratio of used books to new books is 6:8
Answer:
The answer is zero
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a. -5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x2−5x=3
I think the first step would be to
Subtract 3 from both sides
2x2−5x−3=3−3
2x2−5x−3=0
Then
For this equation: a=2, b=-5, c=-3
2x2+−5x+−3=0
Lastly you would
Use quadratic formula with a=2, b=-5, c=-3
I think your answer would then have to be...
x = 3 or x = −1
/2
