<span>(x + 5 1/2) 0.75= 5/8<span>
Convert 0.75 into a fraction
</span></span><span>(x + 5 1/2) 3/4= 5/8
Use distributive property
3/4x + 5 1/2*3/4 = 5/8
Convert 5 1/2 into improper fraction
3/4x + 11/2*3/4 = 5/8
Multiply
3/4x + 33/8 = 5/8
Subtract 33/8 from both sides
3/4x = 5/8 - 33/8
Subtract the numerators but NOT the denominators
3/4x = -28/8
Divide 3/4 on both sides
x = -28/8 divided by 3/4
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction 3/4 to 4/3
x = -28/8 * 4/3
Multiply
Final Answer: x = -112/24 or -4 16/24 or -4 4/6 or -4 2/3 *All answers are equivalent to each other.</span>
Answer: 7:35 a. M
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Snooze on alarm = 5 minutes
Snooze on cellphone = 7 minutes
If both activates at 7:00 a. M
Time at which both will activate again ;
Obtain the Lowest Common Multiple of 5 and 7
_5 __|5 ___|7
_7__ |1 ___|7
____ |1 ___| 1
Lowest common multiple = (5 * 7) = 35
Hence, both alarms will sound together again after 35 minutes = 7:00a.m + 35 minutes = 7:35 A. M
Answer:
