Answer:
x = 41/3
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
7(1x - 3) = 4(x + 5)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Simplify: 7(x - 3) = 4(x + 5)
- Distribute: 7x - 21 = 4x + 20
- Subtract 4x on both sides: 3x - 21 = 20
- Add 21 on both sides: 3x = 41
- Divide 3 on both sides: x = 41/3
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 7(1(41/3) - 3) = 4(41/3 + 5)
- Multiply: 7(41/3 - 3) = 4(41/3 + 5)
- Subtract/Add: 7(32/3) = 4(56/3)
- Multiply: 224/3 = 224/3
Here, we see that 224/3 is indeed equivalent to 224/3. ∴ x = 41/3 is a solution to the equation.
And we have our final answer!
Answer:
n = ⅜
Step-by-step explanation:
X | x ≤ 1} and {x | x ≥ 1}{x | x < 1} and {x | x > 1}<span>{x | x ≤ 1} or {x | x ≥ 1}

10 wins/ 6 losses= 1.667
13 wins/ 7 losses= 1.857..
32 wins/ 18 losses= 1.77..
6 wins/ 3 losses= 2
The last team has the highest win to loss ratio, and therefore has the highest winning percentage.
Final answer: Last team, 6 wins and 3 losses
