Answer:

The equation is: \frac{x-7}{5} = 13 and the number is 72.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to use mathematical notation to convert the given statement into an equation. As we don't know the exact value of number, we have to use a variable in place of the number.

Let x be the required number then

"A number decreased by 7"

x-7

"and then  divided by 5"

\frac{x-7}{5}

" is 13."

\frac{x-7}{5} = 13

For solving, multiplying both sides of equation by "5"

\frac{x-7}{5} * 5 = 13*5\\x-7 = 65

Adding 7 on both sides of equation

x-7+7 = 65+7\\x = 72

Hence,

The equation is: \frac{x-7}{5} = 13 and the number is 72.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

The expression to represent the total shipping costs for x package is 6x.

Tommy will pay $ 12 in shipping and handling for 2 packages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the shipping and handling charge for 1 package = $ 6

So, by using the elementary method, the shipping and handling charge for x package is $ 6x.

Hence, the required expression to represent the total shipping costs for x package is 6x.

For 2 package, x=2

So, the shipping and handling charge for 2 package

=6x2

=12.

So, Tommy will pay $ 12 in shipping and handling for 2 packages.
