There's no way to know this without knowing the number of pencils he started with
5(x - 6) + 4 = 7x - 4
5x - 30 + 4 = 7x - 4
5x - 26 = 7x - 4
5x - 26 + 4 = 7x
5x - 22 = 7x
-22 = 7x - 5x
-22 = 2x
-22 / 2 = x
-11 = x
x = -11 is the solution to the given equation
Answer:
It would be 63
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because 9 x 7 = 63
Simple math.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
When working with surds we need to take note of the roots present there.
To expand this equation we can do it the following way noting that √3 X √3 = 3
<em></em>
<em>Expanding (1-√3)(⅓+√3)</em>
1 X 1/3 = 1/3
1 X √3 = √3
-√3 X 1/3 =-√3/3
√3 X √3 = 3
hence, expanding the equation, we have
1/3 + √3 -√3/3 + 3
We can simply group the like terms and add them up.
[1/3 +3] +[√3-√3/3]
10/3 + 
=
