Answer:

-5 < x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

|x| < 5

This can be split into two cases: x < 5 and -x < 5 because |x| could be either x or -x depending on whether x is positive, negative, or 0. Solving the second one we get x > -5 so the answer is -5 < x < 5.

Hey John

Let's start solving #1

x/4 = 3.5/28
Cross multiply
(x)(28) = (3.5)(4)
28x = 14
Divide both sides by 28
28x/28 = 14/28
x = 1/2

Next, let's solve the second one

$\frac{3}{5} + \frac{4}{5x} + \frac{7}{10x} + 1 \frac{1}{2} = 5 \frac{3}{5}$
Simplifies to:
$\frac{105x+75}{50x} = \frac{28}{5}$
Cross multiply
(105x + 75)(5) = (28)(50x)
525x + 375 = 1400x
Subtract 1400x to both sides
525x + 375 - 1400x = 1400x - 1400x
-875x + 375 = 0
Then subtract 375 from both sides
-875x + 375 - 375 = 0 - 375
-875x = -375
To find x, divide both sides by -875
-875x/-875 = -375/-875
x = 3/7

Let me know if you have questions about the answer.

Best of luck with your studies!

What does the C equal to in -1/6 +7/6 = c

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

c = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

we have -1/6 + 7/6

since 6 is a common denominator we can do

$\frac{-1}{6} +\frac{7}{6} = c\\\frac{-1+7}{6} = c\\\frac{6}{6} = c\\1 = c\\c = 1$
