1.) expand

3x - 15 - 5x = 25 + 6x

2.) simplify

-2x - 15 = 25 + 6x

3.) add 2x to both sides

-15 = 25 + 6x + 2x

4.) simplify

-15 = 25 + 8x

5.) subtract 25 from both sides

-15 - 25 = 8x

6.) simplify -15 - 25 to -40

-40 = 8x

7.) divide both sides by 8

-40/8 = x

8.) x = -5

What is the sum (Two-fifths x + StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction) + (one-fifth x minus one-fourth)?
liubo4ka [24]

The sum of  ( \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{5}{8} ) + ( \frac{1}{5} x - \frac{1}{4} ) is  \frac{3}{5} x +  \frac{3}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

To add or subtract 2 fractions, they must have same denominators, if they not do that

  • Find the Lowest common multiple of the two denominators (LCM)
  • Replace each denominator by it
  • Divide The LCM by each denominator and multiply the numerator of each fraction by its quotient

∵ ( \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{5}{8} ) + ( \frac{1}{5} x - \frac{1}{4} )

- Let us start with adding the like terms

∴  ( \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{5}{8} ) + ( \frac{1}{5} x - \frac{1}{4} ) = (

∵ ( \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{1}{5} x ) have same denominators, then we can add them

∴ ( \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{1}{5} x ) = \frac{3}{5} x

∵  ( \frac{5}{8}  - \frac{1}{4} ) do not have the same denominators, then we must find

    LCM of 8 and 4

- The LCM of 8 and 4 is 8 because 8 is the first common multiple

   of 8 and 4

∵ LCM of 8 and 4 is 8

- Divide 8 by the denominator 4

∵ 8 ÷ 4 = 2

- Multiply the numerator of the fraction by 2

∴ \frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{8}

∴  ( \frac{5}{8}  - \frac{1}{4} ) = ( \frac{5}{8} - \frac{2}{8} ) = \frac{3}{8}

∴  ( \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{5}{8} ) + ( \frac{1}{5} x - \frac{1}{4} ) = \frac{3}{5} x +  \frac{3}{8}

The sum of  ( \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{5}{8} ) + ( \frac{1}{5} x - \frac{1}{4} ) is  \frac{3}{5} x +  \frac{3}{8}

The price of a ceramic bead necklace (Y) is directly proportional to the number of beads (x) on the necklace. Using the graph, w
Annette [7]

Answer: C) (1,0.80) represents the unit rate. E) (25,20) represents the price of a necklace with 25 beads

Step-by-step explanation:

(1, 0.80) represents the unit rate.

(25, 20) represents the price of a necklace with 25 beads.

\frac{y}{x} = unit rate → \frac{4}{5} = 0.80; \frac{12}{15} = 0.80; \frac{16}{20} = 0.80

Point (1, r) → (1, 0.80) represents the unit rate.

25(0.80) = 20; thus, (25, 20) represents the price of 25 beads.

Hope this helps
