What is the solution to this equation? 8x - 5 (x-3) = 18

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

We distribute the negative 5 to x minus three to get 8x-5x+15=18. Then, we cancel out the 15 by subtracting it from both sides. This leaves us with 8x-5x=3. When we subtract, we get 3x=3, and when we divide both sides by 3, we get x=1. Hope this helps :)

if you practice a musical instrument each day for 2/3 of an hour how many hours of practice would you get in each week?
RideAnS [48]
In order to find the answer of the given problem above, we need to make the solution below:
Given: 2/3 of an hour = practice each day
           2/3 of an hour is equivalent to 40 minutes
And per week, there are 7 days. So we will multiply 40 minutes by 7, and the result is 280 minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we divide 280 by 60 and we get 4.67 hours. Therefore, each week, you would get 4.67 hours of practice on playing a  musical instrument.

Solve for n -3n-5=16
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

n = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n:

-3 n - 5 = 16

Hint: | Isolate terms with n to the left-hand side.

Add 5 to both sides:

(5 - 5) - 3 n = 5 + 16

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

5 - 5 = 0:

-3 n = 16 + 5

Hint: | Evaluate 16 + 5.

16 + 5 = 21:

-3 n = 21

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of -3 n = 21 by -3:

(-3 n)/(-3) = 21/(-3)

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

(-3)/(-3) = 1:

n = 21/(-3)

Hint: | Reduce 21/(-3) to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 21 and -3.

The gcd of 21 and -3 is 3, so 21/(-3) = (3×7)/(3 (-1)) = 3/3×7/(-1) = 7/(-1):

n = 7/(-1)

Hint: | Simplify the sign of 7/(-1).

Multiply numerator and denominator of 7/(-1) by -1:

Answer: n = -7

Three friends, Ana, Jack and Nick come together to purchase a special from a pizza place. It is a half pepperoni, half mushrooms
maw [93]

Answer:

Paula would choose the side with all of the mushrooms and half of the pepperoni. She wont choose any sausage because she doesn't like it, but luckily David likes sausage twice as much as mushroom so he's fine with getting all of the sausage and half of the pepperoni. They both equally like pepperoni so it makes sense for them to share.
