Start by finding the common denominators (in this case, 6)

So;

1/6x + 15/6 = -2/6

1/6x = -17/6

x = -17

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6x + 5/2 = -1/3

1/6x = -1/3 - 5/2 = (-1*2)/ 3*2 - 5*3 / 2*3

1/6x = -2/6 - 15/6 = (-2-15) /6 = -17/6

1/6x = - 17/6

x = (-17/6) * (6/1)

x = -17

zzz [600]

Answer:

Numerical expression 1

$\frac{4}{10000} * \frac{5}{1000} = \frac{20}{10000000} = \frac{1}{500000}$

Numerical expression 2

$\frac{1}{50000} = 0.2 * 10^{-4} = 2 * 10^{-5}$

Numerical expression 3

$1 : 50000$

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows the cost of renting ski equipment at a ski lodge. Write a linear function f for the sequence. Then graph the fun

Bingel [31]

Answer:

y=5x+7

or

f(x)=5x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = 5

Y-intercept (b) = 7

Using the equation y=mx+b, you can find m and b to make y=5x+7.

Steps:

(1, 12) (2, 17) formula: y2-y1 / x2-x1 = m

17-12= 5

2-1 = 1

5/1=5

m=5

12=5(1)+b

12=5+b

7=b

17=5(2)+b

17=10+b

7=b

Answer: y=5x+7

or

f(x)=5x+7

Answer:

There are 25 students in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the percentage of students who want an ice cream party is 20%, and 5 students want an ice cream party, we know that:

$\frac{5}{S}=0.2$

, where S is the total amount of students. We can then solve for S:

$\frac{5}{S}=0.2$ Given equation

$5=0.2*S$ Multiply by S

$25=S$ Divide by 0.2

Therefore, there are 25 students in the class.
