7. The Quotient

Mathematics
1 answer:
nasty-shy [4]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

<h3>The number is 500</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

The quotient of a number divided by five is written as

\frac{x}{5}

the number decreased by 400 is written as

x - 400

Equate the two expressions

We have

\frac{x}{5}  = x - 400

Multiply through by 5

That's

x = 5x - 2000

x - 5x = - 2000

- 4x = - 2000

Divide both sides by - 4

x = 500

Hope this helps you

What is the value of x
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Supplementary Angles Theorem, set <em>4x</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>20</em><em> </em>and <em>x</em><em> </em>equal to 180. Once done, combine like-terms to get <em>5x</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>20</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>180.</em><em> </em>So, straight off the bat, we know that <em>5x</em> has to equal 200 [bringing 20 over to the right side of the equivalence symbol], therefore 40 is equal to <em>x</em><em>.</em>

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
