Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
33769/181
Discussion:
Each term contains "x" so factoring it out gives
x( 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17) = 71 (*)
Use common factor (17*14*4 = 952) as the denominator to combine terms:
1/4 = (17*14)/ 952 = 238/952
1/14 = (17*4)/952 = 68/952
1/17 = (14*4)/952 = 56/952
so 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17 = (238 + 68 + 56)/ 952 = 362/952 = 181/476
Substituting in (*) gives
x ( 181/476) = 71 => multiply both sides by 476/181
x = (71 * 476)/181 => 71* 476 =33769
x = 33769/181
Thank you,

Step-by-step explanation:
TSA of a cuboid= 2(lb+bh+lh)
= 2(5×4+4×1.5+5×1.5)
= 2(20+6+7.5)
= 2× 33.2
= 66.4 square units
1 = 1/4(2x+8)
1 = 1/2x + 2
1 - 2 = 1/2x
(-1) = 1/2x
x = (-1) : 1/2 = (-1) × 2/1 = (-2)
Answer : x = (-2)
The charity will receive $ 11
<h3><u>
Solution:</u></h3>
Ken earned $176 from his part-time job this summer
Amount earned = $ 176
He spent 25% of his money on games
Therefore,
Money spent on games = 176 - 25 % of 176
He is going to donate 1/4 of the remaining money to charity
Reamining amount = 176 - 132 = 44
Therefore,
Thus he gave $ 11 to charity
