How to solve: 3x + 5 = x + 14

1 answer:

6 0

Combine like terms:
subtract x from both sides to get
2x+5=14
subtract 5
2x=9
isolate x:
divide 2 from both sides to isolate x
x=9/2
that's your final answer. unless your teacher wants you to put it in decimal form in which all you do is divide 9÷2.

Find the ratio of cans of fruit to the total number of food items collected.

Butoxors [25]

First add all the items together:

6 + 4 + 7 + 4 = 21

then we compare 6 and 21 and look for common factors, 6 and 21 have the common factor 3 so we divide them both by 3 to get 2 and 7. since 2 and 7 have no common factors our answer is

2:7

This means for every 2 cans of fruit there are 7 total items and vice versa.

Jasmine can run 4 5/6 miles in 2/3 of an hour. how many miles can she run 1 hour simplify comepletly

Vikentia [17]

Remark

the question depends on d= r * t

d = the distance in miles.

r = the rate of travel in miles per hour

t = the time in hours.

Step One

Rearrange the formula so you are solving for the rate.

d = r * t Divide by t

4 5/6 = (4*6 + 5)/6 = 29/6

r = d / t

Step Two

Substitute into the equation.

$r = \dfrac{\dfrac{29}{6}}{\dfrac{2}{3} }$

Step Three

Turn the bottom fraction upside down. Multiply these two together.

r = $\dfrac{29}{6} * \dfrac{3}{2}$

r = 29/4 miles hour.

Step Four

Solve for d when t = 1 hour.

d = ??

r = 29/4 miles / hour

t = 1 hour.

d = 29/4 * 1

d = 29/4 miles

That's as simple as you can get it unless you want 7 1/4 miles or 7.25 miles

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see that when two weeks that pass, the plant grows one inch. This rate can be written as 1 inch : 2 weeks. But, we need to find the unit rate. To find the unit rate, or how many inches the plant grows per week, we divide both by 2.

1/2 inch : 1 week

1/2

I Hope That This Helps! :)
