Solve for x. Write the smaller solution first, and the larger solution second. (x -4)(-5x +1)=0
2 answers:
The product of the two is 0, so one of them have to equal 0 as any number multiplied by 0 is 0.
First solution: x - 4 = 0
If x - 4 = 0, then x = 4. So the first solution for <em>x </em>is 4.
Second Solution: -5x + 1 = 0
Solving...
-5x + 1 = 0
-5x = -1
x = -1/-5
x = 1/5 or 0.2
So x = 0.2 and 4
Answer: smaller x= 1/5
Larger x=4

Step-by-step explanation:
2(3x+4)+6+7x
Distribute:
=(2)(3x)+(2)(4)+6+7x
=6x+8+6+7x
Combine Like Terms:
=6x+8+6+7x
=(6x+7x)+(8+6)
=13x+14
Answer:
same variable and same exponent
1/3 oranges were spoiled.....u threw away 4 oranges...
1/3 of what = 4....
1/3x = 4
x = 4 * 3
x = 12 oranges
1/4 grapefruits were spoiled....u threw away 7
1/4 of what = 7
1/4x = 7
x = 7 * 4
x = 28
so ur fruit basket contained 12 oranges and 28 grapefruits before u discarded the spoiled ones
