<span>x -1÷8 = 20 :

x - 1 / 8 = 20  ( multiply both sides by 8 ) :

x * 8 - 1/8 * 8 = 20 * 8

Refine:

8 x - 1 = 160  ( add  1 to both sides : )

8 x - 1 + 1 = 160 + 1

8 x = 161

Divide both sides by 8 :

8 x /8  = 161/8

x = 161 / 8  decimal = 20.125

hope this helps!

First, multiply each side by 8 to get x-1=160, then add one to each side to get x=161. So, in conclusion, x=161! Hope this helped!

A collection of dimes and quarters is worth $6.50. There are 35 coins in all. How many dimes are there?
DIA [1.3K]
Lets do this like this:
X = number of quarters and y=number of dimes.
Now, we know that the total number is 35 and that the change adds up to 6.50.
One equation we can form is <span>x+y=35</span>Remember the total number of coins is 35.
The other equation is <span>25x+.1y=6.5</span>Because the number of dimes times their value plus the number of quarters times their value gives us a total of 6.5. Now we can solve for x or y easily in the first equation.
Solving for y like this:<span>y=35−x</span>We can substitute this into the other equation to obtain<span>.25x+.1(35−x)=6.5</span>This simplifies to<span>.15x+3.5=6.5</span><span>.15x=3</span><span>x=<span>20
I hope this can help you indeed</span></span>

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, notice that we can cancel out an x in the second term. Thus:

\frac{3x^2}{x^2+x} =\frac{3x^2}{x(x+1)} =\frac{3x}{x+1}

As with the last question, change the sign to multiplication and "flip" the second term:

\frac{2x-1}{x+1}\cdot \frac{x+1}{3x}

Multiply straight across:

=\frac{(2x-1)(x+1)}{(x+1)(3x)}

Cancel the (x+1) term:

=\frac{2x-1}{3x}

Cannot be simplified further.

B.
