16 % = 38

(16 × 6 = 96

16 / 4 = 4 so = 38/4 = 9.5)

100% = 38*5 + 9.5

=199.5

Alona [7]
180 seconds is 3 minutes. If you divide 156 by 3, you will get 52. If you are looking for 2 minutes, you have to multiply 52 by 2. The answer is 104 revolutions in 2 minutes.

5x-3x(26x-7x-28x) systems of equation
labwork [276]

Simplifying
5x + 2(8x + -9) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
5x + 2(-9 + 8x) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)
5x + (-9 * 2 + 8x * 2) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)
5x + (-18 + 16x) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 5x + 16x = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Combine like terms: 5x + 16x = 21x
-18 + 21x = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 3(4 + x) + -5(2x + 7)
-18 + 21x = (4 * 3 + x * 3) + -5(2x + 7)
-18 + 21x = (12 + 3x) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + -5(7 + 2x)
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + (7 * -5 + 2x * -5)
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + (-35 + -10x)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 12 + -35 + 3x + -10x

Combine like terms: 12 + -35 = -23
-18 + 21x = -23 + 3x + -10x

Combine like terms: 3x + -10x = -7x
-18 + 21x = -23 + -7x

Solving
-18 + 21x = -23 + -7x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '7x' to each side of the equation.
-18 + 21x + 7x = -23 + -7x + 7x

Combine like terms: 21x + 7x = 28x
-18 + 28x = -23 + -7x + 7x

Combine like terms: -7x + 7x = 0
-18 + 28x = -23 + 0
-18 + 28x = -23

Add '18' to each side of the equation.
-18 + 18 + 28x = -23 + 18

Combine like terms: -18 + 18 = 0
0 + 28x = -23 + 18
28x = -23 + 18

Combine like terms: -23 + 18 = -5
28x = -5

Divide each side by '28'.
x = -0.1785714286

Simplifying
x = -0.1785714286
