The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6
Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.
5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6
Then, simplify
65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
An exponential function has the variable in the exponent.
Answer:
600
Step-by-step explanation:
round 2,545 to 2,400 and keep 4 the same because 24 goes into 4 six times so 2400/4 equals 600
24/4 is 6 and you add the two zeros
Answer:

distributive property
Answer:
V = 10 1/2 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
V = length • width • height
V = 2 • 3 1/2 • 1 1/2
V = 10 1/2 ft³
