Answer:
x = -11/9
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x+3)=-2(x-5)
Distribute
7x+21 = -2x+10
Add 2x to each side
7x+21 +2x = -2x+10+2x
9x +21 = 10
Subtract 21 from each side
9x +21-21 = 10-21
9x = -11
Divide each side by 9
9x/9 = -11/9
x = -11/9
Answer:
The length of the total 8 pieces in 0.8 meters = 6.4 meters
How many pieces there are in the remaining 0.4 meter = 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.8 x 8 = 6.4
9 meters - 6.4 meters = the remaining 2.6 meters
2.6 x 0.4 = 6 1/2 pieces of ribbon in 0.4 meters.
If we assume that
x isthe number of multiple choice questions, and y is the number of word problems, we can write a system of equations like:
{ x + y = 38
{ 2x + 5y = 100
If we multiply the first equation by -2 we get:
{ -2x-2y = -76
{ 2x + 5y = 100
Now if we add both equations we get only equation with 1 unknown (y) :
3y = 24 ⇒ y = 8
Substituting the calculated value to the first equation we get:
x + 8 = 38 ⇒ x = 30
The solution:
{ x = 30
{ y = 8
means that:
The test had 30 multiple choice questions, and 8 word problems.
