Combine like terms
1/12+7/8=2/24+21/24=23/24
3/5(x-5/8)=23/24-x
one easey way is to get rid of nasty fractions


find lcd of denoms
5 and 24
hmm
24*5=120

times both sides by 120

72(x-5/8)=115-120x
distribute
72x-45=115-120x
add 120x to both sides
192x-45=115
add 45 to both sides
192x=160
divide both sides by 192
x=5/6

x=5/6

1. distribute

 step 1:              3                  3

                        ----- ×   X =  ------X

                          5                  5

 

                3               5           3           Ima convert this into a decimal

            ------- ×   -  -----  = -  ------      ----> negative .375

                5              8            8


2. write the problem now

        3                          1              7

      ----- X - 0.375 =    ---- - X +  ----

        5                         12             8


3. I would convert them into decimals and solve

      0.6x - 0.375 = 0.08 - x + 0.875

        +x                         +x

--------------------------------------------------

      1.6x - 0.375 = 0.08 + 0.876

         1.6x - 0.375 = 0.956

                  +0.375   +0.375

--------------------------------------------------

      1.6x = 1.331

      ------    -------

      1.6        1.6

---------------------------------------------------

        x = 0.831875


rounded up : 0.83

Find x, y, and z<br><br> x = 39<br> x = 29<br> y = 61<br> y = 29<br> z = 61<br> z = 29
nikdorinn [45]

answer:

x = 29

y = 29

z = 61

step-by-step explanation:

all angles in a triangle must equal 180 degrees.

we were already given the angle degree of 61 degrees so we must include that in our formula to determine the degree of y.

the line in the middle already gives us two more angles because they both are 90 degrees for being a perfect quarter turn.

so to figure out y,

we must add 61+90 and then subtract the sum of that from 180.

so, 61+90 = 150 and 180-151 = 29

therefore,

we can conclude that y = 29

now, to determine the degrees of x and z we do the same thing.

we already know one angle equals 90 degrees.

180-90 = 90

that concludes that x and z must have a sum of 90.

if we use our choices,

39+61 = 100 (no)

39+29 = 68 (no)

29+61 = 90 (CORRECT)

29+29 = 28 (no)

<em>therefore, x = 29 and z = 61</em>

<em></em>

<em>so, in total :</em>

<em>x = 29</em>

<em>y = 29</em>

<em>z = 61</em>

<em></em>

<em>hope this helps :)   </em>

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

A. 5 * 3=15

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 5 pears

Each pear is divided into 3 pieces.

(1*3)+(1*3)+(1*3)+ (1*3)+(1*3)

Which equals

(3)*(3)*(3)*(3)*(3)

Which when simplified equals:

3*5

Which equals

3*5=15

Thus, this is our answer!
