The recommended approach for such equations is to eliminate fractions first, by multiplying by the LCM of the denominators. You can simply simplify, then work them as a 2-step linear equation, doing your arithmetic with the fractions as they are.

a) (5x-1)/7 + (4x-3)/2 -(3-2x)/2 = 6 . . . . . given

... 2(5x -1) +7(4x -3) -7(3 -2x) = 84 . . . . . multiply by 14

... 10x -2 +28x -21 -21 +14x = 84 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

... 52x -44 = 84 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

... 52x = 128 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 44

... x = 32/13 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 52 and simplify

b) (4x−3)/2 − (5−2x)/3 − (3x−4)/3 = 5 . . . given

... 2x -3/2 -5/3 +(2/3)x -x +4/3 = 5 . . . . . . .eliminate parentheses

... (5/3)x -11/6 = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

... (5/3)x = 41/6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 11/6

... x = (41/6)/(5/3) = 41/10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x

Using the first method, you're dealing with integers and you can do a lot of the math in your head. Using the second method, you're dealing with fractions and mixed numbers. A calculator can be helpful, especially if it handles arithmetic with fractions nicely, as many graphing calculators do.

Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it can't go over 100%, and our numbers are 7 and 3, they are 70% and 30%, which add up to 100%.

Three friends fill bags with trash at a neighborhood cleanup. Randall's bag weighs

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Randall picks up 68 pounds

Seth picks up 40 pounds

Joanna picks up 52 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us make an equation in x to find it

∵ Randall's bag weighs 3x - 7 pounds

∵ Joanna's bag weighs 2x + 2 pounds

∵ Seth's bag weighs 2x - 10 pounds

∵ Randall's and Joanna's bags weigh 3 times as much as Seth's bag

- That means add Randall's bag and Joanna's bag and equate

the sum by 3 times Seth's bag

∵ Randall's bag + Joanna's bag = 3(Seth's bag)

∴ (3x - 7) + (2x + 2) = 3(2x - 10)

- Simplify the two sides

∴ (3x + 2x) + (-7 + 2) = 3(2x) - 3(10)

∴ 5x + (-5) = 6x - 30

∴ 5x - 5 = 6x - 30

- Add 5 to both sides

∴ 5x = 6x - 25

- Subtract 6x from both sides

∴ -x = -25

- Divide both sides by -1

∴ x = 25

Substitute x by 25 in the weight of each bag

∵ Randall's bag weighs = 3(25) - 7 = 75 - 7

∴ Randall's bag weighs = 68 pounds

∵ Seth's bag weighs = 2(25) - 10 = 50 - 10

∴ Seth's bag weighs = 40 pounds

∵ Joanna's bag weighs = 2(25) + 2 = 50 + 2

∴ Joanna's bag weighs = 52 pounds
