1.4 + 2/5x = 3/15x - 0.8 How do you solve this?

It appears you are looking for x.
1.4+2/5x=3/15x-.08

you have to isolate the x
 first add .08 to both sides
1.48+2/5=3/15x
i would now find the equivalence fraction of 2/5 with the denominator of 15. To do this you have to multiply 5 by 3 to get 15 so, you multiply the original numerator to get the equivalent one. 2(3)=6 
1.48+6/15x=3/15x
now i am going to subtract 6/15x from both sides
1.48=  -3/15x
to get rid of the fraction i am going to convert it to a decimal.
-3/15= -.2

1.48= -.2x

now i have to divide both sides by -.2

Find the inverse function g(x) of the function f(x)=2x+1
choli [55]

Answer:

The inverse function is f(x) = (x - 1)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of any function, start by switching the x and f(x) values.

f(x) = 2x + 1

x = 2f(x) + 1

Now solve for the new f(x). The result will be your inverse function.

x = 2f(x) + 1

x - 1 = 2f(x)

(x - 1)/2 = f(x)

Shana ran 6miles in 1 week. this is one third of what she ran in the month. let m represent the number of miles shana ran in a l
Slav-nsk [51]
Let m be the distance (in miles) she runs in a month
and w be the distance (in miles) she runs in a week

since the total distance she run in a week is one third of what she run in a month, in equation form
w = m/3

to calculate the distance she run  in a month,
m = 3w
m = 3(6 miles)
m = 18 miles in a month
