Hey :)
First, find the GCF.
It is 6 since it divides evenly into 42x and -18.

Second, factor out the gcf and divide each term by the GCF.
6(42x/6 - 18/6)

Lastly simplify.
6(7x-3)

There are many different ways to do it and that's one of them.

Hope this helps !!
Good luck:)

A figure is part blue and part red.it is 5/8 red what part of the figure is blue

oksian1 [2.3K]

If $\frac{5}{8}$ is red, than the remaining $\frac{3}{8}$ would be blue. $\frac{5}{8}$ + $\frac{3}{8}$ would give you $\frac{8}{8}$ .

Solve the linear equation. X + 5 = -2

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

$x=-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

$x+5=-2$

To solve, subtract 5 from both sides. This is the subtraction property of equality:

$(x+5)-5=(-2)-5$

The left side cancels:

$x=(-2)-5$

Subtract on the right.

$x=-7$

So, our answer is -7.

Solve in(5x+7)=8 round to the nearest thousandth

Ivan

Answer:

$x=\frac{1}{5}$

$x=0.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(5x+7)=8$

$5x+7=8$

Subtract 7 from both sides.

$5x+7-7=8-7$

Simplify.

$5x=1$

Divide both sides by 5.

$\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{1}{5}$

Simplify.

$x=\frac{1}{5}$

Decimal form:

0.2

Katie is getting her laundry done it cost $2.25 per square foot of flowers added to the yard if she wants 12.4 ft.² of flowers h

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Katie needs to pay $27.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Cost of per foot = $2.25

Number of flowers in her yard = 12.4 square foot

We need to find how much she needs to pay.

Solution:

Now we know that;

$1\ ft^2 = \$2.25$

So for $12.4 ft^2$ = Cost for $12.4 ft^2$ .

By using Unitary method we get;

Cost for $12.4 ft^2$ = $2.25\times12.4= \$27.9$

Hence Katie needs to pay $27.9.
