Mathematics

1. You need to get 5x on one side all by itself. So, you need to add 2 to the other side to undo the subtraction

5x = 8 + 2

5x = 10

2. Divide both sides by 5

\frac{5x}{5} =  \frac{10}{5}

x = 2

Consider the rational number, −0.4. Is the number greater than −2 and 1/3 but less than 4/5 ?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rational number -0.4 is a negative, it cannot have a greater value than 1/3 since it is a positive.

Though, the rest of the sentence is true.

-0.4 > -2

-0.4 < 4/5

It's 18/100. The reduced / simplest form is 9/50 because you divide it by 2 since it's the GCS.

Pink rose plants are on sale for $3 each and white ones for $5 each. A gardener decides to buy 13 in total, choosing more white
Anettt [7]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the gardener bought more white than pink, that could mean he could have bought 12 white and one pink, 11 white and 2 pink, 10 white and 3 pink, 9 white and 4 pink, 8 white and 5 pink, or 7 white and 6 pink.

If you plug in the numbers, for example with 7 and 6, that would equal $53, which is not correct. Continue to do this with all of the answers.

With 8 white roses and 5 pink roses, this would equal $55 (40+15), which is the answer.
