Answer:

x = -42 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

x/6 = -7

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Multiply 6 to both sides

(x/6)(6) = (-7)(6)

x = (-7)(6)

Simplify. Multiply 6 with -7

x = (-7)(6)

x = -42

<u><em>Answer: x=-42 *The answer should be the negative sign.*</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplication property of equality is multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number does not change the equation.

x/6=-7

multiply by 6 both sides of an equation.

6x/6=6(-7)

simplify.

7*6=42

6*7=42

42/7=6

42/6=7

It changes to positive to negative.

x=-42

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

$1530

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, it is required to convert 35g of gold into ounce.

Since,

1 oz = 28 g

or, we can write,

$1 g = \frac{1}{28} oz$

Now, for 35 g of gold, we can write,

$35 * 1 g = 35 * \frac{1}{28} oz\\35 g = 1.25 oz$

Since, local jewelry will buy at $ 1224 per oz, and we have 1.25 oz of gold, so,

$1.25 * 1244\\$1530$

Now, that you have the new wheel circumference, what will happen to the number of rotations if the circumference of the tires we

butalik [34]

The number of rotations for the new wheel will be 1,056 rotations

<h3>How to calculate the circumference of a wheel?</h3>

Let the initial circumference be 50 rotations (assumed)

If the number of rotations of the circumference of the tires were increased by 20%, then the new circumference will be:

Ne circumference = 1.2 * 50 = 60

number of rotations for the new wheel = 63360/60
number of rotations for the new wheel = 1,056 rotations

Hence the number of rotations for the new wheel will be 1,056 rotations
