You can simply collect terms, subtract the constant and divide by the x-coefficient. It is generally considered easier to do those steps if you eliminate fractions first (multiply by 12).
Multiply by 12
... 4(x -1) +3(x +5) = 6
... 4x -4 +3x +15 = 6 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
... 7x +11 = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . .collect terms
... 7x = -5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract the constant 11
... x = -5/7 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient

Here it is the other way.
... x(1/3 +1/4) +(-1/3 +5/4) = 1/2
... (7/12)x + 11/12 = 1/2 . . add the fractions to finish collecting terms
... x + 11/7 = 6/7 . . . . . . . multiply by 12/7
... x = -5/7 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 11/7
At the third step here, you could subtract 11/12 before doing the multiply. You get the same answer, but you have to do the extra conversion of 1/2=6/12.
Answer:
77 pictures
Step-by-step explanation:
You are trying to find 18% of 430.
18/100 = 9/50 * 430
756/10 = 75.6
77 is the closest choice out of all the other choices.
Answer:
1125 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation:

where:
- h = height (in metres)
- t = time (in seconds)
<u>Method 1</u>
Rewrite the equation in vertex form by completing the square:




The vertex (15, 1125) is the turning point of the parabola (minimum or maximum point). As the leading coefficient of the given equation is negative, the parabola opens downward, and so vertex is the maximum point. Therefore, the maximum height is the y-value of the vertex: 1125 metres.
<u>Method 2</u>
Differentiate the function:

Set it to zero and solve for t:



Input found value of t into the original function and solve for h:

Therefore, the maximum height is 1125 metres.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the b from one side of the equation.
<u>First, subtract by 5 from both sides.</u>

<u>Solve.</u>
<u />
<u>Subtract.</u>
9-5=4
2b=4
<u>Divide by 2 from both sides.</u>
2b/2=4/2
<u>Solve.</u>
<u />
<u>Divide the numbers from left to right.</u>
4/2=2

Therefore, the correct answer is b=2.
I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
