Solve the equation:
5 3
x – —— = – ——
7 7
5
Add —— to both sides, so you get x isolated at the left-hand side:
7
5 5 3 5
x – —— + —— = – —— + ——
7 7 7 7
3 5
x = – —— + ——
7 7
Now, add those fractions at the right-hand side of the equation:
– 3 + 5
x = —————
7
2
x = —— <——— this is the answer (first option: 2/7).
7
I hope this helps. =)
Answer: x=1/2
she was wrong, it's supposed to be
Step-by-step explanation: 8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)
(8)(x)+(8)(−3)+7=2x(4−17)(Distribute)
8x+−24+7=−26x
(8x)+(−24+7)=−26x(Combine Like Terms)
8x+−17=−26x
8x−17=−26x
Step 2: Add 26x to both sides.
8x−17+26x=−26x+26x
34x−17=0
Step 3: Add 17 to both sides.
34x−17+17=0+17
34x=17
Step 4: Divide both sides by 34.
34x/34=17/34 x=1/2
The diagram shows that the triangles on the graph had similar ratios, as such their vertical heights to their horizontal are equivalent.
Option D is correct.
<h3>What is the slope of a graph?</h3>
The slope of a graph determines the steepness of the graph and it is the difference between two points on the y-coordinate(rise) and the difference between two points on the x-coordinate(run).
From the diagram attached, we can see that the triangles on the graph had similar ratios, as such their vertical heights(y-coordinates) to their horizontal (x-coordinates) are equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:
5x-(x+3)=1/3(9x+18)-5
5x-x+3=3x+6-5
1/3 multiplied by 9/1 is three because if you take away the ones and put your problem like this: 9/3, you'll get 3.
1/3 multiplied by 18/1 is six because if you take away the ones and switch to division, it'll look like this: 18/3. 18/3 is 6.
5x-1x+3=3x+6-5
If a variable is alone, you should - in this case - put a one before it, but if the variable is alone you should know that it's automatically a one.
4x+3=3x-1
6-5=1 Simple math problem, probably self explanatory
4x+3=3x-1
Subtract 3x from 4x and you'll get 1x because 4-3 is 1.
1x+3=-1
Then you add 3 to -1 which is 2.
The answer is 1x=2
Or you could've done:
4x+3=3x-1
-4x -4x
3=-1x-1
+-1 +-1
2=1x
It's the same answer, but all I did was subtract the 4x from the 4x and 3x.
