-q-7q=8
First you need to know that there is an invisible 1 in front of -q. Change it to -q if you need to. You get:
-1q-7q=8
add like terms: -1-7 gives you -8.
-8q=8. Divide by -8 on both sides to find q.
-8/8=-1
8/8=1
Therefore, q=1.
Answer:
3/5 or
0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
You could change these fractions to decimals, but you may not be convinced that the answer you get is the same as just using fractions. I'll start by using fractions.
x - 2/5 = 1/5 Add 2/5 to both sides
x - 2/5 + 2/5 = 1/5 + 2/5 The left side cancels to 0.
x = 1/5 + 2/5 The denominators (bottom the fraction) are the same. Just add the tops.
x = (1 + 2)/5
x = 3/5
=======================
If you use your calculator to find 2/5 and 1/5, you can get the same answer as 3/5
2
÷
5
=
0.4
By the same method, 1/5 = 0.2
Substitute into the original equation
x - 0.4 = 0.2 Add 0.4 to both sides
x - 0.4 +0.4 = 0.2 + 0.4 The left side reduces just to x
x = 0.2 +0.4
x = 0.6
If you let your calculator do the work, like this
3
÷
5
=
0.6
The answers are the same.
Answer:
-3 1/2 > -4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5 > 2 1/2 False
1/2 > 0.5 False
-2.5 > -1.5 False
-3 1/2 > -4.5 True
1.5 > 2 1/2
1/2 = 0.5
2 + 0.5 = 2.5
1.5 is not > 2.5
1.5 < 2.5
1/2 > 0.5
1/2 = 0.5
0.5 is not > 0.5
0.5 = 0.5
-2.5 > -1.5
Negative numbers are oposite of positive numbers when using inequalities. Just as 0 < 1, -1 < 0.
-2.5 is not > -1.5
-2.5 < -1.5
-3 1/2 > -4.5
1/2 = 0.5
3 + 0.5 = 3.5
-3.5 > -4.5
Answer:
<h3>The answer is option C.</h3>
