Answer:

The solution is x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 2x+1-14x=-71


We group like terms to obtain;


2x-14x=-71-1


We now simplify to get;


-12x=-72


We divide both sides of the equation by -12 to get;

\frac{-12x}{-12}=\frac{-72}{-12}


We cancel out the common factors to get;


x=\frac{72}{12}


This implies that


x=\frac{12\times 6}{12}


x=6

The answer is C: 10\text{ }^1/_2. Here are the details:

\text{Equation:}\\ 6\text{ }^1/_3+10\text{ }^1/_2\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\ \\ \text{Start with the integers.}\\ 6+10=16\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\ \\ \text{...then with the fractions, but rewrite them first to make it easier.}\\ ^1/_3+\text{ }^1/_2\stackrel{\text{rewrite}}{\to}\text{ }^2/_6+\text{ }^3/_6=\text{ }^5/_6\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\
\\
\text{Add 'em up!}\\
16\text{ }^5/_6

\text{Equation:}\\
16\text{ }^5/_6+3\text{ }^5/_6\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\
\\
\text{Start with the integers.}\\
16+3=19\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\
\\
\text{...then with the fractions, but rewrite them first to make it easier.}\\
^5/_6+\text{ }^5/_6=\text{ }^{10}/_6\stackrel{\text{rewrite}}{\to}\text{ }^5/_3\stackrel{\text{rewrite}}{\to}1\text{ }^2/_3\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\
\\
\text{Add 'em up!}\\
20\text{ }^2/_3

\text{Last equation:}\\ 20\text{ }^2/_3+5\text{ }^1/_2\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\ \\ \text{Start with the integers.}\\ 20+5=25\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\ \\ \text{...then with the fractions, but rewrite them first to make it easier.}\\ ^2/_3+\text{ }^1/_2\stackrel{\text{rewrite}}{\to}\text{ }^4/_6+\text{ }^3/_6=\text{ }^7/_6\stackrel{\text{rewrite}}{\to}1\text{ }^1/_6\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6\\
\\
\text{Add the integer and fraction together.}\\
25+1\text{ }^1/_6\stackrel{?}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6

26\text{ }^1/_6\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}26\text{ }^1/_6

cynthia and amy are customer service representives cynthia earns $13 per hour and amy earns $1.50 more per hour than cynthia. Am
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h bet the # of hours worked

If Cynthia earns $13 per hour then her equation would be:

C = $13h

If Amy makes $1.5 more per hour then her equation would be:

A = $14.5x

Now lets plug in some numbers:)

A = $14.5(43.5)

A = $630.75

2x16 is 32 so you would take square root of 16 out which is 4 and leave the 2 inside. So the answer is 4sqrt(2)
