Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 1 + 7x= -8

~2x + 7x = 9x

9x + 1 = -8

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x + -1 = 7x + -8

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 2x = 7x + -8

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 2x = -8 + 7x

Solving

-1 + 2x = -8 + 7x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-7x' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 2x + -7x = -8 + 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 2x + -7x = -5x

-1 + -5x = -8 + 7x + -7x

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0

-1 + -5x = -8 + 0

-1 + -5x = -8

Add '1' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 1 + -5x = -8 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0

0 + -5x = -8 + 1

-5x = -8 + 1

Combine like terms: -8 + 1 = -7

-5x = -7

Divide each side by '-5'.

x = 1.4

Simplifying

x = 1.4

A man has 10 more dimes than quarters. he has $2.75 how many of each coin does he have?
Anton [14]
5 quarters, 15 dimes

q + 10 = d
0.25q + 0.1d = 2.75

0.25q + 0.1(q + 10) = 2.75
0.25q + 0.1q + 1 = 2.75
0.35q = 1.75
q = 5

Check:

0.25(5)+ 0.1(15)= 2.75
1.25 + 1.5 = 2.75
2.75 = 2.75 :)

Fully explain why an inefficient resource allocation leads an economy to produce at a point inside its production possibilities
Stella [2.4K]
Production possibilities frontier, PPF, is defined as a representation of the point at which a country’s economy is most efficiently producing its goods and services. Efficient production means allocating its resources in the best way possible.
<span>
The points in the PPF shifts outward. The more efficient production is the more the PPF shifts outward. With this in mind, any point found inside the PPF means that there is inefficient resource allocation. If the PPF shifts inward, it means that the efficiency production is regressing and available resources are not fully used to its potential which will lead to a downward turn of the economy.

you are attempting to guess a 3 digit number and have the following information. there are no 0s the number is even. the sum of
ss7ja [257]

The 3-digit number is 132

<h3>How to determine the 3-digit number?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Number of digits = 3
  • Sum of digits = 6
  • No 0s in the number
  • No repeated digit

The first highlight above implies that the number can be any of 100 to 999

The other highlights imply that the no digit can appear repeatedly, the highest digit in the number is 3, and the number must end with 2.

So, we have:

X32

The first digit is the smallest.

1 is smaller than 3 and 2.

So, we have

132

Hence, the 3-digit number is 132
