Answer:
x = 22 (see explanation!)
Step-by-step explanation:
Just with any algebraic equation, you will want to isolate the variable (x). Here's a step-by-step to show you how it's done:
1/7(x + 6) = 4
Multiply by 7 to get rid of the 1/7 (since 7 * 1/7 = 7/7 = 1)
7*1/7(x+6) = 7*4
x+6 = 28
Now, subtract 6 from both sides to isolate x:
x + 6 - 6 = 28 - 6
Finally:
x = 22
Answer:
Erich planted 7 seeds ...
he had to remove 17 plants ....
he expected to have less or equal 46 plants ...
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at keywords like remove ~ => which indicates that something is being subtracted
Since x represents seed packets, and the amount he planted is a number multiplied by x, we can deduce he planted 7 seeds ( 7 * x)
Range is the difference between the largest and the smallest variable. If the range is 18 and the smallest number is 9. Add 9 to 18.
9+18= 27. 27 is the largest number.
