<span>(x + 5 1/2) 0.75= 5/8<span>
Convert 0.75 into a fraction
</span></span><span>(x + 5 1/2) 3/4= 5/8
Use distributive property
3/4x + 5 1/2*3/4 = 5/8
Convert 5 1/2 into improper fraction
3/4x + 11/2*3/4 = 5/8
Multiply
3/4x + 33/8 = 5/8
Subtract 33/8 from both sides
3/4x = 5/8 - 33/8
Subtract the numerators but NOT the denominators
3/4x = -28/8
Divide 3/4 on both sides
x = -28/8 divided by 3/4
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction 3/4 to 4/3
x = -28/8 * 4/3
Multiply
Final Answer: x = -112/24 or -4 16/24 or -4 4/6 or -4 2/3 *All answers are equivalent to each other.</span>

Can someone please help me solve 1-|1/3q-5|=-6
FrozenT [24]
Hello,

2 cases:

if 1/3*q-5>0 then

 |1/3*q-5|=1/3*q-5
1-|1/3*q-5|=-6
1-(1/3*q-5)=-6
1-1/3*q+5=-6
6-1/3*q=-6
-1/3*q=-12
q=36

else

 |1/3*q-5|=-(1/3*q-5)
1-|1/3*q-5|=-6
1+(1/3*q-5)=-6
1+1/3*q-5=-6
-4+1/3*q=-6
1/3*q=-2
q=-6

can someone please help answer this, thank you, will give brainliest once i can, just please no spam answers, thank you!
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

t=1p

Step-by-step explanation:

this problem is fairly easy. we will first do is set the equation to equal t also known as the total price. this is because you were trying to determine how much you will have to pay if she buys her food in bulk. you will then equal t to how much it will cost if the food is in bulk. to do this you will multiply 1 (this next she wants to buy weighs 1 kg) and multiply it by p (price per kilogram). Hope this helps!
