Answer:

METHOD 1:

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21

5x+7x+7=5x-21

12x+7=5x-21

12x-5x=-21-7

7x=-28

x=28/7

x=4

METHOD 2:

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21-5x

7(x+1)=-21

7x+7=-21

7x=-28

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD 1:

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21

5x+7x+7=5x-21

12x+7=5x-21

12x-5x=-21-7

7x=-28

x=28/7

x=4

METHOD 2:

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21

5x+7(x+1)=5x-21-5x

7(x+1)=-21

7x+7=-21

7x=-28

x=4

Hannah wants to save 1/3 of her allowance each week to buy a new dress that costs $45.00. if her allowance is $6.00 each week, h
Bess [88]

Answer:

It will take 22.5 weeks for her to save up to buy the dress.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of $6.00 is 2.

(6 ÷ 3 = 2)

So she's saving $2 each week.

Now we need to divide $45 by $2 to get the number of weeks.

45 ÷ 2 = 22.5

What are Conic Sections and how are they formed?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

In mathematics, a conic section is a curve obtained as the intersection of the surface of a cone with a plane. The three types of conic section are the hyperbola, the parabola, and the ellipse; the circle is a special case of the ellipse, though historically it was sometimes called a fourth type.

Conic sections are formed on a plane when that plane slices through the edge of one or both of a pair of right circular cones stacked tip to tip.

Lf 7 + 3x = 22. then 2x = ?
Sloan [31]

Answer:

2x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

7 + 3x = 22

-7           -7

Subtract 7 from both sides (you are trying to get the variable alone, and to do that, you have to get every other number to 0. <em>7 - 7 = 0</em>. BUT, whatever you do, you have to do to both sides.)

3x = 15

/3    /3

Divide both sides by three to get the variable alone.

x = 5

Now, plug in the value of x to the second equation and solve.

2(5) = ? --> 10

1. K is the midpoint of HN. HK = 4x + 5 and<br> HN = 11x – 11. Solve for x and find KN.
galben [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since K is at the midpoint of HN then HK = KN = 4x + 5, thus

HN = HK + KN ← substitute values

11x - 11 = 4x + 5 + 4x + 5, that is

11x - 11 = 8x + 10 ( subtract 8x from both sides )

3x - 11 = 10 ( add 11 to both sides )

3x = 21 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 7

Hence

KN = 4x + 5 = (4 × 7) + 5 = 28 + 5 = 33
