Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying 5x + -7 = 2x + 8 Reorder the terms: -7 + 5x = 2x + 8 Reorder the terms: -7 + 5x = 8 + 2x Solving -7 + 5x = 8 + 2x Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2x' to each side of the equation. -7 + 5x + -2x = 8 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x -7 + 3x = 8 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0 -7 + 3x = 8 + 0 -7 + 3x = 8 Add '7' to each side of the equation. -7 + 7 + 3x = 8 + 7 Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0 0 + 3x = 8 + 7 3x = 8 + 7 Combine like terms: 8 + 7 = 15 3x = 15 Divide each side by '3'. x = 5 Simplifying x = 5

Define their percentage:
----------------------------------
Adam = 100%
Tapiwa = 100 + 5 = 105%
----------------------------------
Find their total percentage:
----------------------------------
100 + 105 = 205
----------------------------------
Find 1%
----------------------------------
205% = 697 liters
1% = 3.4 liters
----------------------------------
Find 100% (Adam):
----------------------------------
100% = 3.4 x 100
100% = 340 liters
----------------------------------
Find 105% (Tapiwa):
----------------------------------
105% = 3.4 x 105
105% = 357 liters
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Tapiwa = 357 liters and Adam = 340 liters.

Answer:
-786
Explanation:
Move 4^-4 to the numerator using the negative exponent rule 1/x^-n = x^n
<em>-(3×^4)</em>
Raise 4 to the power of 4.
<em>-(3×256)</em>
Multiply 3 by 256.
<em>-1×768</em>
Multiply -1 by 768.
<em>-768</em>
So if 240 is 5%, double it to get 480 than multiply it by 10 to get 4800.
