71/10 into a mixed number is 7 1/10
Answer:
D. I or II only
Step-by-step explanation:
By a small online search, I've found that the equation is:
6x + 7 = 3x - 5
And the options are:
I. Combining the 6x and 3x terms
II. Combining the 7 and 5
III. Dividing both sides of the equation by 6
A. I only
B. II only
C. III only
D. I or II only
E. I or II or III
So, let's solve the equation in such a way that we can prevent the use of fractions:
6x + 7 = 3x - 5
We can use I and II, combining one in each side, so we get (so we use I and II at the same time)
6x - 3x = -5 - 7
solving these, we get:
(6 - 3)*x = -12
3*x = -12
and -12 is divisible by 3, so if we divide in both sides by 3, we get:
x = -12/3 = -4
x = -4
So we avoided working with fractions, and we used I and II.
Then the first step could be either I or II (the order does not matter)
Then the correct option is:
D. I or II only
The answer is C BECAUSE for this question, you can think relatively. They give you the responses for 54 people surveyed, however they want the answer from 1,140 students. You can set up the proportion of 30/54 = x/1140 to find out the number of students agreeing to keep the mascot. You get 1900/3 or 633 1/3.
