Hello! Thank you for your question! I will be most happy to help!

So here what we are going to do is solve for X.

Step 1: Simplify x/7

Equation at the end of step 1: 5/7 + x/7 - 10 > 0

Step 2: Simplify 5/7

Equation at the end of step 2:

5/7 + x/7 - 10 > 0

Step 3: Adding fractions which have a common denominator: 

3.1 Adding fractions which have a common denominator
<span>Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

5 + x / 7 = x + 5 / 7

Equation at the end of step 3:

(x + 5) / 7 - 10 > 0

Step 4: Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction:

</span>4.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction 
<span>
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 7 as the denominator:
</span>
10 = 10 / 1 = 10 * 7 / 7

Equivalent fraction: <span>The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole 

</span>Common denominator: <span>The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
</span>
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

4.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions 

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

(x+5) - (10 * 7) / 7 = x - 65 / 7

Equation at the end of step 4:

x - 65 / 7 > 0

Step 5: 5.1 Multiply both sides by 7

Solve Basic Inequality:<span><span> 

5.2 </span>Add <span> 65 </span> to both sides
<span><span>
x > 65

Final answer: x > 65</span></span></span>

Answer:

Molly's Z score for LSAT

z-score=-2

Molly's Z score for MCAT

z-score=2

Step-by-step explanation:

z-score for LSAT

Molly's score=120

mean=150

Standard deviation=15

z-score= (Molly LSAT score-mean)/standard deviation

z=120-150/15=-30/15=-2

z-score for MCAT

Molly's score=52

mean=40

Standard deviation=6

z-score= (Molly MCAT score-mean)/standard deviation

z=52-40/6=12/6=2

Find the GCF.<br><br> 18c3 and 24c3
12345 [234]

Answer:

6c³

Step-by-step explanation:

18c³ = 2 × 3 × 3 × c × c × c

24c³ = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × c × c × c

Now we show the common factors in bold:

18c³ = 2 × 3 × 3 × c × c × c

24c³ = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × c × c × c

The common factor are:

2, 3, c, c, c

GCF = 2 × 3 × c × c × c = 6c³
