Answer:
<h2>x = 5.7</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:

To find x first cross multiply
We have
7x = 8 × 5
7x = 40
Divide both sides by 7
That's


x = 5.7142
We have the final answer as
<h3>x = 5.7 to the nearest tenth</h3>
Hope this helps you
This does not look easy to factor, so I'd suggest using the quadratic formula:
-1 plus or minus sqrt( 1-4(3)(-5) )
x = -----------------------------------------------
2*3
-1 plus or minus sqrt(61)
= ------------------------------------
6
Thus, there are 2 real, unequal, irrational roots / solutions.
An equivalent expression would be s+15
You simplify the expression.
So yea the answer is s+15
7 is closer to 10 and is more than half. 5 and up, go up one. 4 and below, stay the same.
8.475= 8.5
