Dog weigh: 23
cat weigh: 5/8 dogs weigh
so..
23x5/8 = 115/8
Answer:
The sum of two numbers is 18.
5 times the first number subtracted from 4/7 of the second number is 14.
First number --> x
Second number --> y
so
x + y = 18 --> x = 18-y
5x - (4/7)y = 14
so
5 (18-y) - (4/7)y = 14
90 - 5y - 4/7 y = 14
-5.57 y = 14-90
y = 13.64
so
x = 18 - 13.64
x = 4.36
In this case there will be 2 solutions to solve for in this equation, both will equal plus and minus the answer. Which is 14.
6(3x + 5) = +_ 14
The solutions will be the following :
(14/6 - 5)/3
(-14/6 - 5)/3.
Answer:
x= −2 or x=3
