Answer:
it is not clear plz take a clear image
6/x = x-1
Multiply x by both sides
6= x(x-1)
Set x and x-1 equal to 6
x = 6, x = 1+6 = 7
Answer:
Number of smaller ropes she can make from the larger rope = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Total length of rope = 2/5 ft
Length of smaller rope = 3/5 ft
How many smaller ropes can she make from the larger rope?
Number of smaller ropes she can make from the larger rope = Total length of rope / Length of smaller rope
= 2/5 ÷ 3/5
= 2/5 × 5/3
= (2*5)/(5*3)
= 10/15
= 2/3
Number of smaller ropes she can make from the larger rope = 2/3
1/8 the fraction?
two eighths = 2/8=1/4
<span>1) 3x-2=x+10
</span><span>Now, lets solve this step-by-step.
</span><span>
3x - 2 = x + 10
-x -x
</span><span>
</span><span>3x - x = 2x 2x - 2 = 10
</span><span>
</span><span>2x - 2 = 10
</span>2x - 2+2 = 10+2 The inverse operation helps isolate the variable.
<span>
2x = 12
2x/2 = 12/2
x = 12/2
x = 6</span><span>
Answer: x = 6
2) x + 4 = 19 - 2x </span>
We can solve this much faster
x + 4 = 19 - 2x
+2x
x+2x = 3x
3x + 4 = 19
-4 -4
19-4 = 15
3x= 15
3x/3 = 15/3
x= 5
Answer: x = 5
3) <span>8x - 20 = x + 15
Much faster now!!
8x - 20 = x + 15
-x
8x-x = 7x
7x - 20 = 15
+20 +20
15+20 = 35
7x = 35
7x/7 = 35/7
x = 35/7
x = 5
Answer: x= 5</span>
