Answer:

John receives a pay of $3,500.00

Step-by-step explanation:

x = John's pay

x = 1/2x + 250 + 3/7x     [1/2 = 7/14 and 3/7 = 6/14]

x = 13/14x + 250

x - 13/14x = 13/14x - 13/14x + 250    [1x = 14/14]

1/14x = 250   [multiply both sides by 14]

x = 3500

Check:

3500 = 1/2(3500) + 250 + 3/7(3500)

3500 = 1750 + 250 + 1500

3500 = 3500

1)
I:x-y=-7
II:x+y=7

add both equations together to eliminate y:
x-y+(x+y)=-7+7
2x=0
x=0

insert x=0 into II:
0+y=7
y=7

the solution is (0,7)

2)
I: 3x+y=4
II: 2x+y=5

add I+(-1*II) together to eliminate y:
3x+y+(-2x-y)=4+(-5)
x=-1

insert x=-1 into I:
3*-1+y=4
y=7

the solution is (-1,7)

3)

I: 2e-3f=-9
II: e+3f=18

add both equations together to eliminate f:
2e-3f+(e+3f)=-9+18
3e=9
e=3

insert e=3 into I:
2*3-3f=-9
-3f=-9-6
-3f=-15
3f=15
f=5

the solution is (3,5)

4)
I: 3d-e=7
II: d+e=5

add both equations together to eliminate e:
3d-e+(d+e)=7+5
4d=12
d=3

insert d=3 into II:
3+e=5
e=2

the solution is (3,2)

5)
I: 8x+y=14
II: 3x+y=4

add I+(-1*II) together to eliminate y
8x+y+(-3x-y)=14-4
5x=10
x=2

insert x=2 into II:
3*2+y=4
y=4-6
y=-2

the solution is (2,-2)

Which rational expression will complete the equation? 4z^5/7 (?)= z^10/14
Burka [1]
Answer: The rational expression that is needed is z^5/8.

In the problem, we are starting with 4z^5/7 and multiply by something. Then, we have z^10/14.

First, let's deal with the variables. We go from z^5 to z^10, so we had to multiply by z^5.

Second, our fraction went from 4/7 to 1/14, the missing factor would be 1/8 because 4/7 times 1/8 equals 1/14.
