Since 5 3/5 can be turned into 28/5, then divided by 7/1, you will get 4/5. So Jeremy swims 4/5 of a kilometer each day.
x > -1
-2x+5 < 7
-2x<2
Now since you divide by (-1) to get positive 2,you need to flip the sign
(-2)/(-1)= 2 2/(-1)=-2
SO
2x>-2
x > -1
To check the solution do not replace the x by -1 because it shouls be more than -1 (You can choose 0,1,2,3....)
Example choose x=3
-2x3+5<7
-6+5<7
-1<7
1/3 x - 1/2 = 18 1/2
1/3 x = 19 (add 1/2 on the right side to 18 1/2)
x = 57 (multiply the reciprocal of 1/3 and that will be 3/1 or 3 to 19 to get x by itself)
So, the answer is x = 57 (d. 57)
What is the series you are referring too?
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
the question translates to asking how many times does 7/8 fit in 21, so 21 divided by 7/8.
when we divide by a fraction, we can multiply by it's inverse, so 21 divided by 7/8, is 21 multiplied by 8/7. so:
21×8/7 = (21×8)/7 = (21/7)×8 = 3×8 = 24
