Subtract. Write the difference in simplest form.<br><br>(5n - 3) - (-2n + 7)​
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Simplifying

(5n + -3) + -1(-2n + 7) = 0

Reorder the terms:

(-3 + 5n) + -1(-2n + 7) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (-3 + 5n)

-3 + 5n + -1(-2n + 7) = 0

Reorder the terms:

-3 + 5n + -1(7 + -2n) = 0

-3 + 5n + (7 * -1 + -2n * -1) = 0

-3 + 5n + (-7 + 2n) = 0

Reorder the terms:

-3 + -7 + 5n + 2n = 0

Combine like terms: -3 + -7 = -10

-10 + 5n + 2n = 0

Combine like terms: 5n + 2n = 7n

-10 + 7n = 0

Solving

-10 + 7n = 0

Solving for variable 'n'.

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

Add '10' to each side of the equation.

-10 + 10 + 7n = 0 + 10

Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0

0 + 7n = 0 + 10

7n = 0 + 10

Combine like terms: 0 + 10 = 10

7n = 10

Divide each side by '7'.

n = 1.428571429

Simplifying

n = 1.428571429

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

X ≤ 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the additional fee for a piece of luggage is only charged if it weighs more than 50 lbs, than Michael's suitcase weight must be less than, or equal to, 50 lbs.  Using 'X' as the weight of Michael's suitcase in pounds:

X ≤ 50

'X' is less than or equal to 50 lbs

The denominator of a fraction is 4 more than the numerator if both are decreased by 3 the simplified result is 6/7 find original
Hitman42 [59]

<u>Answer:</u>

The denominator of a fraction is 4 more than the numerator. The original fraction is \frac{27}{31}

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that  

Denominator of fraction is 4 more than the numerator.

Let’s say numerator of fraction be represented by variable x.

So denominator of a faction as it is four more that numerator will be x + 4

Also given if both decreased by three than simplified result is \frac{6}{7}

=>\frac{(x-3)}{((x+4)-3)}=\frac{6}{7}

Solving above equation for x

=> 7(x – 3  ) = 6 ( x + 1 )

=> 7x – 21 = 6x + 6

=> 7x – 6x = 6 + 21

=> x = 27

Numerator of fraction = x = 27

Denominator of fraction = x + 4 = 27 + 4 = 31

\text {required fraction}=\frac{\text {numerator}}{\text {denominator}}

= \frac{27}{31}

Hence the original fraction is \frac{27}{31}
