Answer:

Division property get you to the quick solution

Solution: 3.4

Step-by-step explanation:

5*(x - 2) = 7

Dividing both sides by 5

5*(x -2)÷5 = 7÷5

x - 2 = 1.4

Adding 2 on both sides, we

x -2 + 2 = 1.4 + 2

x = 3.4

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.

EleoNora [17]

Double the first equation: 4x+14y=-2 and subtract the second: 17y=17, so y=1. 2x=-7y-1=-7-1=-8, so x=-8/2=-4.
The answer is x=-4 and y=1.

What is the solution of x-1/1-x < 0?

kykrilka [37]

Option C is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the solution of $\frac{x-1}{1-x}$

The given inequality becomes undefined when x = 1 because the denomiator is: 1-x and if x = 1 then it becomes 1-1 = 0 and anything divided by zero is undefined.

So, all values other than 1 are included in the solution of the given inequality.

So, solution is: x<1 or x>1 but x≠1

So, Option C is correct because all numbers are included in number line except 1. An unfilled circle on 1 shows that it is not included in the solution. Rest of numbers are included.

Option C is correct option.

Answer choices 6 cubic units8 cubic units 10.6 cubic units 18 cubic units

antiseptic1488 [7]

Given,

Cylinder A has a volume of 6 cubic units

and height =3 units

The radius of cylinder A,

$\begin{gathered} r=\sqrt[]{\frac{V}{\pi h}} \\ =\sqrt[]{\frac{6}{3\pi}} \\ =0.8 \end{gathered}$

To find the volume of a cylinder B

$\begin{gathered} V=\pi r^2h \\ =(3.14)\times(0.8)^2\times(3) \\ =6.03 \end{gathered}$

Thus the volume of cylinder B is 6.03

topjm [15]

Pretty simple equation, where we need to find the number of books. If it is 2$ each day per book
72/9 = 8$ per day is the late fee paid
So if each book is 2$, then we can assume
8/2 = 4 books

So equation is
“# books = (amount paid)/(days * per day payment)”
