Step-by-step explanation (Question 1):
<u>Step 1: (Question 1): Subtract x from both sides.</u>
5x+3=x+13
5x+3−x=x+13−x
4x+3=13
<u>Step 2: (Question 1): Subtract 3 from both sides.</u>
4x+3−3=13−3
4x=10
<u>Step 3: (Question 1): Divide both sides by 4.</u>
4x/4 = 10/4
FIRST ANSWER: x = 5/2
Step-by-step explanation (Question 2):
<u>Step 1: (Question 2): Multiply by LCM</u>
15x^2 - 6 = x
<u>Step 2: (Question 2): Solve 15x^2</u>
15x^2 - 6 = x:
x = 2/3
x = -3/5
<u>Step 3: (Question 2): Solve</u>
ANSWER: x=0.666667 or x=−0.6
See Attachment 1 for question 1 steps (FULL)
See Attachment 2 for question 2 steps (FULL)
Answer:
1) x = 5/2
2) x=0.666667 or x=−0.6
Hope this helps.
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
denominator(5) stays the same
multiply 2 by 4 since that is 1 fourth of an hour.
So now its 8/5
5 goes into 8 1 time with 3 leftover
So the 1 is a whole number now
the leftover fraction 3/5
=1 3/5
The one of the left isn't too tricky, in the bottom left of it you have 1/2 of 1/4 of the shape, and on the bottom right you have 1/4 of 1/4. Imagine the whole shape was cut up like that bottom right bit into 16 triangles, then you would have three of them shaded (see my diagram).
The one on the right seems like guesswork to me, so I'm sorry if I'm wrong. It look like you just have to use your eyes to work out how much of the bottom half of the shape is shaded: looks like 1/16 to me (i.e. you can draw four of those along and four down, again, see my diagram.) So plus the top half, which is 8/16, you get 9/16.
Answers: left picture: 3/16.
right picture: 9/16.
