Multiply each side by -5, then add 25 to each side.

Mashutka [201]3 years ago

Answer: Multiply each side by −5, add 25 to each side

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression: \frac{-1}{5}(x-25)=7

According to the BODMAS (bracket, of, divide, multiply, add, subtract), to solve for x, we need to first multiply -5 on both sides, we get

x-25=7\times-5\\\Rightarrow x-25=-35

Now, add 25 on both sides, we get

x-25+25=7+25\\\Rightarrow\ x=32

Hence, the correct sequence of operations is "Multiply each side by −5, add 25 to each side".

Dwayne has a wrench set with the socket sizes of 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 what would the next size be?​
lukranit [14]

Notice that the denominator is a multiplied by 2 for each fraction.

1/1•2 = 1/2

1 /2•2 = 1/4

1/4•2 = 1/8

1/8•2 = 1/16

1/16•2 =1/32

The next size is 1/32.

How to subtract fractions
frosja888 [35]
You need to first make denominator in the fractions you have equal, then simply subtract numenators.

example:
2/3 - 1/2
first step is to make denominators equal.
for this example, the denominator will be equal to 6 which is 2x3
so, 2/3 = 4/6 and 1/2 = 3/6
so, the expression now becomes:
4/6 - 3/6
simply subtract numenators and the denominator will be 6 as well.
4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

another example:
3/4 - 1/2
here the denominator can be equal to 4 in all terms
1/2 = 2/4
so, the new expression is now:
3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4
