The answer is x=25/24 or 1 1/24. You would solve this using inverse operations.
2/5x+1/3=3/4
1) 1/3=4/12 and 3/4=9/12
2) 9/12-4/12=5/12
3) 2/5x=5/12
4) Multiply by the reciprocal.
5) 5/2*2/5x=5/12*5/2
6) x=25/24
7)25/24=1 1/24

52.75 with a 25% discount. How much will he pay for it?

Allisa [31]

Answer:

He pays $39.56

Step-by-step explanation:

If finding the discount, always divide the percent by 100.

25% = 0.25

52.75*0.25=13.1875

Because its money, round to hundredths place, $13.19

Subtract the "percent" (13.19) from 52.75

52.75 - 13.19 = $39.56

Answer:

$- 6 < x < 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

first things first:

$- 7 < 2x + 5 \\ - 7 - 5 < 2x + 5 - 5 \\ - 12 < 2x \\ - 6 < x$

now:

$2x + 5 < 7 \\ 2x + 5 - 5 < 7 - 5 \\ 2x < 2 \\ x < 1$

now the intersection is:

$- 6 < x < 1$
