Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

( x - 7 ) ÷ 5 = -2

( <u>-3</u> - 7 ) ÷ 5 = -2

( -10 ) ÷ 5 = -2

-10 ÷ 5 = -2

<h2><em>The answer is -3</em></h2>

<em>The answer is negative 2 because if you minus negative 3 by 7 first, it will give you negative 10. When you divide negative 10 by 5, you get negative 2, which is the answer to the equation.</em>

<em>Hope this helps! <3</em>

katrin [286]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{3(6)-1}{2(6)+1}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left(\dfrac{f}{g}\right)(x)=\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}\\\\\text{We have}\\\\f(x)=3x-1,\ g(x)=2x+1\\\\\left(\dfrac{f}{g}\right)(x)=\dfrac{3x-1}{2x+1}\\\\\left(\dfrac{f}{g}\right)(6)\to\text{put x = 6 to the equation of the function}\ \left(\dfrac{f}{g}\right)(x):\\\\\left(\dfrac{f}{g}\right)(6)=\dfrac{3(6)-1}{2(6)+1}$

5. One canned juice drink is 15% orange juice; another is 10% orange juice. How many liters of each should be mixed together in

hram777 [196]

X: liters of 15% orange juice
y: liters of 10% orange juice

x+y=5L

y=5L - x

x liters of 15% orange juice plus y liters of 10% orange juice makes 5 liters of 12% orange juice in equation form:

0.15x+0.10y = 0.12(5L)

0.15x+0.10(5L-x)=0.12(5L)

0.15x+0.5-0.10x=0.6

0.05x=0.1L

x=2L

so y = 3L

so you need 2 liters of 15% orange juice and 3 liters of 10% orange juice
