Mathematics

Answer:

x= −2/7

i loveeeee mathhhhh have a great day :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(x−2)=−2(x+6)

(5)(x)+(5)(−2)=(−2)(x)+(−2)(6)(Distribute)

5x+−10=−2x+−12

5x−10=−2x−12

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

5x−10+2x=−2x−12+2x

7x−10=−12

Step 3: Add 10 to both sides.

7x−10+10=−12+10

7x=−2

Step 4: Divide both sides by 7.

7x/7=−2/7

x=−2/7

A sack of potatoes weighs 14 pounds 9 ounces after wendy makes potato salad for a picnic the sack weights 9 pounds 14 ounces wha
dlinn [17]
For this case we have the following conversion:
 1 pound = 16 ounces
 Then we rewrite the sack weights:
 14 pounds 9 ounces = 14 9/16
 9 pounds 14 ounces = 9 14/16 = 9 7/8
 Then, we subtract both values:
 (14 9/16) - (9 7/8) = 4.6875 = 4 + 0.6875
 Rewriting:
 4 + 0.6875 = 4 + 6875/1000
 4 + 1375/200 = 4 + 275/40
 4 + 275/40 = 4 + 55/8
 Answer:
 
the weight of the potatoes wendy use for the potato salad is:
 
4 + 55/8 pounds

PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE OUT BRAINLIEST PLEASE​
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Well the answer is the first one 3 (5 x) and 15x

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is the same thing as (5 x) 3. The numbers just changed the positions.

And 15x because you can multiply the first 5 times 3 and that is equal with 15 and then you put the x at the end. 15x
