Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the real numbers:
-1 + 2 + 1/x + 1/x = 3
-1 + 2 + 1/x + 1/x = 1 + 2/x:
1 + 2/x = 3
Bring 1 + 2/x together using the common denominator x:
(x + 2)/x = 3
Multiply both sides by x:
x + 2 = 3 x
Subtract 3 x + 2 from both sides:
-2 x = -2
Divide both sides by -2:
Answer: x = 1
Answer:
40 socks
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 48 socks in total inside the drawer. 2 pairs of white socks means four white socks. The worst possible scenario (however unlikely it is) is that Laura takes all of the red, blue and green socks before picking any white sock. From that point on, Laura has to pick four more socks in order to have two white pairs. In this scenario, there are 8 socks left in the drawer, all white. Therefore, the minimum number of socks that Laura must take to be sure that she has two pairs of white socks is:

She must take at least 40 socks.
This is how I'd solve it:
bench = x x+3x=600
table = 3x 4x=600
x=150
The bench costs <u>$150</u> and the table costs <u>$450</u>; combined, they cost $600, so it's correct. I hope this helps you!
I am too lazy to do question 6 if u want the answer tell me
