Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so first, simplify by combining like terms.

so 8w-6w = 2w

so now we have

2w - 8 = 4w - 7

now we have to get the w's to one side of the equation so we can solve for it. so that mean we have to subtract 2w from both sides. 2w - 2w is 0. and then 4w - 2w = 2w. so now we have

-8 = 2w - 7

then to slowly start isolating w, add 7 to both sides of th equation. so now its

-1 = 2w

finally to get w by itself divide 2 from both sides.

and the answer is

- $\frac{1}{2}$ = w

At Elisa's printing company, there are two kinds of printing presses: Model A, which can print 70 books/ day, and model B, which

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

9 Model As.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent Press A and let B represent Press B.

So, they own 14 total presses. This means that:

$A+B=14$

They can print 905 books per day, in other words, since A prints 70 per day and B prints 55 per day:

$70A+55B=905$

This is now a system of equations. Solve by substitution. From the first equation, subtract B from both sides:

$A=14-B$

Substitute this into the second equation: "

$70(14-B)+55B=905$

First, we can divide everything by 5 to simplify things:

$14(14-B)+11B=181$

Distribute the left:

$196-14B+11B=181$

Combine like terms:

$-3B+196=181$

Subtract 196 from both sides:

$-3B=-15$

Divide both sides by -3

$B=5$

So, the company has 5 Model B presses.

Which means that the company has 14-5 or 9 Model A presses.

And we're done!

A 10 2/3 inch long pipe is cut into 8 equal length pieces, how long is each piece

storchak [24]

Answer:

$\frac{4}{3}$ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of pipe is 10 2/3rd inches

It is cut into 8 equal pieces

We need to divide total length by 8 to get length of each piece. First, we have to convert mixed number (total length) to improper fraction by using formula shown below:

$a\frac{b}{c}=\frac{(a*c)+b}{c}$
