Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
3 (2x - 5) = 21
=> 6x - 15 = 21
=> 6x = 21 + 15
=> 6x = 36
=> x = 36 / 6
=> x = 6
OR
3 (2x - 5) = 21
=> 2x - 5 = 21 / 3
=> 2x - 5 = 7
=> 2x = 7 + 5
=> 2x = 12
=> x = 12 / 2
=> x = 6

Lets say N as cells
On monday N = 3
Multiply means that on tuesday is 9 cells and
Wednesday will 27 cells
Therefore N on wednesday is
No. of cells = 9n
There's a 8ft. long board and the carpenter cut off 3 1/2 and 2 1/3.
So first we need to add 3 1/2 and 2 1/3 because the carpenter cut them off the 8ft. long board.
3+2=5 because it's a whole number. 1/2+1/3= 2/6+3/6= 5/6
5 5/6
Now we subtract
8-5 5/6=
7 6/6- 5 5/6= 2 1/6ft.
2 1/6ft. is what remains of the 8ft. board.
- 4(1/2)x - (3/7) = (1/4)
- 4(1/2)x = (1/4) + (3/7)
- (9/2)x = (7+12)/28
-(9/2)x = 19/28
x = (19/28) * 2 / 9
x = (19/14) / 9
x = 19 / (14*9)
x = 19 / 126
