Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
"Using the variable x for unknown number what is five more than the quotient of a number and 6 equals 7" translates into 5 + x/6 = 7.
To solve use inverse operations.
Answer: <u><em>Miles ran by Matt = 6 miles</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation: Miles ran by Stan = 4 7/10
i.e. 1 3/10 miles less than Matt.
∴ Miles ran by Matt = 4 7/10 + 1 3/10 = 60/10 = 6miles
∴<u><em> Miles ran by Matt = 6 miles</em></u>

I have a simple but slightly time consuming way of doing this. Find 30% of 100 double it and then find 30% of 25, add the two together... In this case 60 + 7.5. After you do that subtract that number from 225. So subtract 67.5 from 225 and there is your answer. Your answer is 157.5
- Subtraction can be thought of as the inverse operation of addition, OR as addition itself, if you look at it as adding a negative number.
- The number line allows us to interpret subtraction (or addition of a negative) geometrically; we can view it as a movement to the left on the number line with a distance equal to the number being subtracted.
- Lastly, the value of any expression a - b (where a and b are real numbers) is determined by the relative sizes of the numbers. If a > b, then a - b > 0 (a positive result). If b > a, then a - b < 0 (a negative result.
