2x + 7 = 15
Get 2x by itself
Take away 7 from both sides.
2x = 8
Divide both sides by 2, or multiply both sides by 0.5.
x = 4.
Your answer is C.)
You are finding 3 1/6 - 1 5/6.
To solve, you should first change it so that the numerator of the first fraction is greater than the numerator of the second. Note that both have the same denominator (6). Subtract as usual:
3 1/6 = 2 7/6
2 7/6 - 1 5/6 = 1 2/6
1 2/6 is your answer.

1) Write the number in exponential form with a base of 10:
3√1000 = 3√10^3
2) Reduce the index of radical and exponent with 3:
3√10^3=10
