Answer:

You can equal them to each other

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-5=3x+3

So you would solve from here.

1. combine like terms add 5 to 3 , those 2 cancel out

you should have 5x=3x+2

2. subtract 3x from 5x

you should have 2x=2

3. Divide 2 from 2x

you get 1

Write an expression to represent: The sum of four and the product of three and a number x xx.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

4+3x

It's pretty straight forward, you have the number 4 that is added to the rest of the expression because sum is addition, and the product of 2 numbers is multiplication so it would make 3(x) or 3x, which results in 4+3x.

gtnhenbr [62]

Given:

Total number of problems = 24

Michael completed $\dfrac{1}{4}$ of his homework in $\dfrac{3}{4}$ of an hour.

To find:

What fraction of his homework would he complete in one hour.

Solution:

We have,

Part of work done in $\dfrac{3}{4}$ of an hour $=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Part of work done in an hour $=\dfrac{4}{3}\times \dfrac{1}{4}$

$=\dfrac{1}{3}$

Therefore, he complete $\dfrac{1}{3}$ of his homework in 1 hour. Hence, all options are incorrect.
