15/4-7x= 9

Move 15/4 to the other side. Sign changes from +15/4 to -15/4

15/4-15/4-7x= 9-15/4

-7x=9-15/4

Find the common denominator for 9 which is 4. Multiply by 4 .

9(4)= 36

36/4-15/4= 21/4

-7x= 21/4

Multiply by -1/7x on both sides

-7(-1/7)x= 21/4(-1/7)

Cross out 21 and -7 , divide by 7

21/7=3

-7/7=-1

3/4*-1/1= -3/4

Answer: -3/4

Answer:

x = - \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply through by 4 to clear the fraction

15 - 28x = 36 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

- 28x = 21 ( divide both sides by - 28 )

x = \frac{21}{-28} = - \frac{3}{4}

twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs. 10 times the number of cream puffs was only
Karolina [17]

donuts and cream puffs were  45 & 4 respectively !

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs. 10 times the number of cream puffs was only 5 less than the number of donuts   We need to find how many donuts and cream puffs were there . Let's find out:

Let number of donuts and cream puffs are x & y respectively ! So ,

  • twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs

According to this statement equation is :

⇒ 2x=24y-6

⇒ x=12y-3            ................(1)

  • 10 times the number of cream puffs was only 5 less than the number of donuts

According to this statement equation is :

⇒ 10y= x-5

⇒ x=10y+5               ................(2)

Equation (1) & (2) :

⇒ 12y-3=10y+5

⇒ 2y=8

⇒ y=4

Putting  y=4 in  x=12y-3  :

⇒ x = 12(4)-3

⇒ x = 45

Therefore , donuts and cream puffs were  45 & 4 respectively !
