Bag of potatoes are usually 10 pounds
4(x+5)+6=2(2x+3)
4x+20+6=4x+6
4x+26=4x+6
Get letters on left...so subtract 4x from right and do same to left
26=6
no solution because 26 does not equal 6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
15x+10x=12x+90; ⇔ 13x=90;
Answer:
<h2>y = 2.8</h2><h2>x = 14</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve an equation, we can only have one variable. In this case, we are given the system 2x = 5y + 14. However, we are given the value of x in terms of y. We can substitute 10y in for 2x and solve.
10y = 5y + 14
First, we need to get all the variables on one side of the equation, so we subtract 5y.
5y = 14
Divide by 5
y = 14/5 or 2 4/5 or 2.8
Now for the x part.
2x = x + 14
Subtract 1x
x = 14
Now we check our answer.
2(14) = 5(2.8) + 14
28 = 14 + 14
28 = 28
Because 28 equals 28, our solutions are correct.
Answer:
187/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(7 + 1/4) 2^2 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3
2^2 = 4:
(7 + 1/4) 4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3
Put 7 + 1/4 over the common denominator 4. 7 + 1/4 = (4×7)/4 + 1/4:
(4×7)/4 + 1/4 4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3
4×7 = 28:
(28/4 + 1/4) 4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3
28/4 + 1/4 = (28 + 1)/4:
(28 + 1)/4×4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3
28 + 1 = 29:
29/4×4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3
29/4×4 = (29×4)/4:
(29×4)/4 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3
(29×4)/4 = 4/4×29 = 29:
29 + (8 + 1/2 - 2)/3
Put 8 + 1/2 - 2 over the common denominator 2. 8 + 1/2 - 2 = (2×8)/2 + 1/2 + (2 (-2))/2:
29 + ((2×8)/2 + 1/2 + (2 (-2))/2)/3
2×8 = 16:
29 + (16/2 + 1/2 + (2 (-2))/2)/3
2 (-2) = -4:
29 + (16/2 + 1/2 + (-4)/2)/3
16/2 + 1/2 - 4/2 = (16 + 1 - 4)/2:
29 + ((16 + 1 - 4)/2)/3
16 + 1 = 17:
29 + ((17 - 4)/2)/3
| 1 | 7
- | | 4
| 1 | 3:
29 + (13/2)/3
13/2×1/3 = 13/(2×3):
29 + 13/(2×3)
2×3 = 6:
29 + 13/6
Put 29 + 13/6 over the common denominator 6. 29 + 13/6 = (6×29)/6 + 13/6:
(6×29)/6 + 13/6
6×29 = 174:
174/6 + 13/6
174/6 + 13/6 = (174 + 13)/6:
(174 + 13)/6
