5(2x+1)=7x-41 how do you solve this equation

5(2x + 1) = 7x -41

You use the distributive property to solve this one by doing 5*2x and 5*1.

So then the result which would result to:

10x + 5 = 7x -41

(Then subtract 7x from each side and subtract 5 from each side too)

3x = -46

( Now you divide 3 by -46 to get x alone)

x= - 46/3

Then simplify:
x= -15 1/3

Hope this helps

Audrey uses 5/8 cup of Fruit in each smoothie she makes 6 smoothies to share with her friends how many cups of fruit does she us
olga55 [171]
To find the amount of cups of fruit used you must multiply the number of smoothies (6) by the amount of fruit need for each smoothie (5/8)
6 x 5/8 = 30/8
30/8 can be simplified to 15/4.
This is still an improper fraction, because the numerator is higher than the denominator. To fix this, you divide 15 by 4, which equals 3 3/4 cups

Which of the following is a perfect square trinomial?
yanalaym [24]
Your answer is D. 16x² - 56xy + 49y².

A perfect square trinomial is the result of a squared binomial, like (a + b)². Using this example, the perfect square trinomial would be a² + 2ab + b², as that is what you get when you expand the brackets.

Therefore, to determine which of these is a perfect square trinomial, we have to see if it can be factorised into the form (a + b)².

I did this by first square rooting the 16x² and 49y² to get 4x and 7y as our two terms in the brackets. We automatically know the answer isn't A or B as you cannot have a negative square number.

Now that we know the brackets are (4x + 7y)², we can expand to find out what the middle term is, so:

(4x + 7y)(4x + 7y)
= 16x² + (7y × 4x) + (7y × 4x) + 49y²
= 16x² + 28xy + 28xy + 49y²
= 16x² + 56xy + 49y².

So we know that the middle number is 56xy. Now we assumed that it was (4x + 7y)², but the same 16x² and 49y² can also be formed by (4x - 7y)², and expanding this bracket turns the +56xy into -56xy, forming option D, 16x² - 56xy + 49y².

I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

\bigg( \frac{16}{49}  \bigg)^{  - \frac{3}{2} }  \\  \\  =  \bigg( \frac{49}{16}  \bigg)^{ \frac{3}{2} }  \\  \\  =  \bigg( \frac{ {7}^{2} }{ {4}^{2} }  \bigg)^{ \frac{3}{2} }  \\  \\  =  \bigg( \frac{ {7}}{ {4} }  \bigg)^{ \frac{2 \times 3}{2} }  \\  \\  =  \bigg( \frac{ {7}}{ {4} }  \bigg)^{ 3}   \\  \\  =  \frac{343}{64}  \\

Twelve and three tenths more than five and thirteen thousandths of a number d is equal to fifteen and three hundred two thousand
Masja [62]
12 and 3/10 more than 5 and 13/1000 of d equals 15 and 302/1000
12 and 3/10+(5 and 13/1000 times d)=15 and 302/1000
convert to improper fractions
12 and 3/10=123/10
5 and 13/1000=5013/1000
15 and 302/1000=15302/1000

123/10+(5013/1000 times d)=15302/1000
subtract 123/10 from both sides
123/10=12300/1000
(15302-123000)/1000=2698/1000
5013/1000 times d=2698/1000
multiply both sides by 1000/5013 to clear fraction
d=2698/5013
