Answer:

x = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

Find LCM for 5 , 10.  LCM of 5 , 10= 10

\frac{x-3}{5}-\frac{x+1}{10}= -2\\\\\frac{(x-3)*2}{5*2}-\frac{x+1}{10}=-2\\\\\\\frac{2x-6}{10}-\frac{x+1}{10}\\\\\\\frac{2x - 6 - (x+1)}{10}= -2\\\\\\\frac{2x - 6 - x -1}{10} = -2\\\\\\\frac{2x -x - 6 - 1}{10} = -2 \\\\\\\frac{x - 7}{10} = -2\\\\\

Cross multiply,

x - 7 = -2 * 10

x - 7 = -20

     x = -20 + 7

    x = -13

If a farmer gets 340 bushels of corn from 2 acres of land, how many bushels can they get from 15 acres?
kari74 [83]

The number bushels they get from 15 acres of land is 2550

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, farmer gets 340 bushels of corn from 2 acres of land

To find: Number bushels they get from 15 acres

Let us first find the unit rate, that is we have to find number of bushels from 1 acre of land

From given question,

2 acres of land = 340 bushels of corn

Therefore, for 1 acres of land,

\text{ number of bushels from 1 acre of land } = \frac{340}{2} = 170

<em><u>How many bushels can they get from 15 acres?</u></em>

So, multiply the number of bushels from 1 acre of land by 15 to get answer

\text{number of bushels from 15 acre} = \text{ number of bushels from 1 acre } \times 15

\text{number of bushels from 15 acre} = 170 \times 15 = 2550

Thus number bushels they get from 15 acres of land is 2550

Let the function be f defined by f (x) = 12 - 5x
marissa [1.9K]

(a) No

f(x) = 12 - 5x

f(0) = 12 - 5(0)

f(x) = 12 - 0

f(x) = 12

Hence,

f(0) is unequal to 0.

(b)

f(x) = 12 - 5x

f( - 1) = 12 - 5( - 1)

f( - 1) = 12 + 5

f( - 1) = 17

(c)

f(x) = 12 - 5x

f(x) = 6

6 = 12 - 5x

6 - 12 =  - 5x

- 6 =  - 5x

6 = 5x

\frac{6}{5}  = x
