    4(x + 1) - ax = x + 5
4(x) + 4(1) - ax = x + 5
     4x + 4 - ax = x + 5
     - x              - x
     3x + 4 - ax = 5
           - 4         - 4
            3x - ax = 1
        x(3) - x(a) = 1
            x(3 - a) = 1
              3 - a   3 - a
                      x = 1/(3 - a)

4(x+1)-ax=x+5 

4x+4-ax=x+5

 
    Expand 

4x-ax=x+5-4

 
     Subtract \ 4 \ from \ both \ sides 

4x-ax=x+1 

4x=x+1+ax         Add \ ax \ to \ both \ sides 

4x-x=1+ax

 
         Subtract \ x \ from \ both \ sides 

3x=1+ax

 
 

3x-ax=1&#10;&#10; &#10;            <span>Subtract \ ax \ from \ both \ sides  
</span>
x(3-a)=1&#10;&#10; &#10;    

x= \dfrac{1}{3-a}

Ruden bought 6 new books for his collection, increasing his collection by 12%. How many books did he have before his purchase?
forsale [732]

Answer:

he had 44 books before he bought those 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply 6 times 2 it is 12, which means if you take away 12 from 100 that is 88. if you divided 88 by 2 (the same thing you did to the 6 to make it 12%) that would be 44.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

X=30; Z=80; Y=70

The straight lines equal 180 and you subtract 180 to 150 and 180 to 100 to get 30 and 80 and the inside of a triangle is 180 and you subtract 30 and 80 to 180 to get 70.

Reservation fee of 47.00 and additional fee of 7.40 per hour. Spend less than 91.40. Possible about if time for room
KIM [24]

Answer:

The room can be rented for 6 hours with $91.4

Step-by-step explanation:

If my guess was correct, there was a reservation fee of $47, and there was another fee of $7.4 per hour and the question is asking for how many hours can be rented with $91.4 and the variable t to represent the time.

First, $91.4-$47 as that is the reservation fee. $91.4-$47 = $44.4

Next, we figure out how many hours can we rent with $44.4. Since one hour of rental costs $7.4, t = 44.4/7.4

Finally, we just divide. This is a relatively simple question when thinking about how straightforward this is.

44.4/7.4 = 6

Recheck:

7.4*6 = 44.4

t = 6
