Answer:

x=  3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5x−2(x+1)= 1 /4

5x+(−2)(x)+(−2)(1)= 1 /4

(Distribute)

5x+−2x+−2= 1 /4

(5x+−2x)+(−2)= 1 /4

(Combine Like Terms)

3x+−2= 1 /4

3x−2=1 /4

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

3x−2+2= 1 /4 +2

3x= 9 /4

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

3x/ 3 = 9 /4 /3

x= 3 /4

Find the volume of a prism-shaped watermelon in cubic inches if it's length is 10 inches, its width is 2/3 foot and it's height
Murljashka [212]
The volume is 60 cubic inches.

To solve, follow the formula Volume = Length · Height · Width. If you are solving without a calculator, simply multiply the length and the height first, then multiply the product of that by the width, 2 / 3.
V = 10 · 9 · 2/3
V = (10 · 9) 2/3
V = 90 · 2/3
<span>V = 60 in.³
</span>
Hope this helps. Good luck! :)

Aneli [31]

Answer:

n = 3.5d

Substitute:

5(3.5)d + 10d = 440

17.5d + 10d = 440

27.5d = 440
