X=lottie's aples

give 1/4 of them to fred
origianly had 4/4, but gave 1/4 away so now has (3/4)x
eats 5 of them
(3/4)x-5
now she has 7 more than fred (fred has (1/4)x

so

(3/4)x-5 is 7 more than (1/4)x
(3/4)x-5=7+(1/4)x
add 5 to both sides
(3/4)x=12+(1/4)x
minus (1/4)x from both sides
(2/4)x=12
(1/2)x=12
times 2/1 both sides
2/2x=24
x=24

she had 24 to begin with

Solve the equation -7(2m-6) + 21=-77
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

m=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−7(2m−6)+21=−77

(−7)(2m)+(−7)(−6)+21=−77(Distribute)

−14m+42+21=−77

(−14m)+(42+21)=−77(Combine Like Terms)

−14m+63=−77

−14m+63=−77

Step 2: Subtract 63 from both sides.

−14m+63−63=−77−63

−14m=−140

Step 3: Divide both sides by -14.

-14m/-14=-140/-14

m=10

Rewrite ×3×3×33 using an exponent
Anna11 [10]
the exponent tells you how many times to multiply the base number by itself.   for 35 the base number or base is 3 and the exponent is 5   the value is 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 which has 3 multiplied by itself five times   So your question is going in the opposite direction.   Rather than going from a power and expanding it, we have the expanded form and we are asked to write the power   3 x 3 x 3 is written  33
