Answer: x = -29

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.59x+0.39x=5.8

Collect like terms

-0.2x = 5.8

Divide both sides of the equation by -0.2

x = -29

Response to user in comments:

-0.59+0.39=-0.2 that is a fact

-0.2/-0.2=1 that is a fact

5.8/-0.2= - 29 that is a fact

These are the facts about the steps of the equation. Solving Steps for Solving the Equation

What is -5/8÷9/10=========
k0ka [10]

Answer:  -25 / 36

Solution:

Step 1: Lets flip the division sign to multiplication

Note : when the sign is reversed, the second term in the equation will have the numerator and denominator swapped  

-5/8 ÷9/10  > > > > > > -5/8 * 10/9

Step 2 : so it will be  

-5/4 * 5/9 when simplified,  which would be -25 / 36 > > > > >  - 0.69

Hope this solution will help you understand the problem and don't forget the negative sign it may cost you marks :)

Heath needs to end up with 10L of solution, 

of which 9L is bleach. So let m = liters of 20% 

solution needed. Then .20m liters of that are bleach. 

He must then add p liters of bleach to make 

a total of 10 L. That is, p + m = 10. So the system is 

m + p = 10, .20m + p = 9. Solving, 

<span>m = 1.25 L 20% solution, and thus p = 8.75 L bleach.</span>

The most popular items at a bakery are its raspberry scones and its lemon poppy
Leno4ka [110]

The system r+l = 46 and 15r + 9l = 396 can be used to determine the number of raspberries boxes and lemon seed boxes sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost per box of raspberry = $15

Cost per box of lemon seeds = $9

Total boxes sold = 46

Total revenue generated = $396

Let,

r represent the number of raspberries sold

l represent the number of lemon seeds sold

According to given statement;

r+l = 46    Eqn 1

15r + 9l = 396    Eqn 2

The system r+l = 46 and 15r + 9l = 396 can be used to determine the number of raspberries boxes and lemon seed boxes sold.
