x + 3/2 + x - 1 = 4/5

Collect the same terms

x + x + 3/2 - 1 = 4/5

2x + 3/2 - 2/2 = 4/5

2x + (3 - 2)/2 = 4/5

2x + 1/2 = 4/5

2x + 0.5 = 0.8

Subtract both sides 0.5

2x + 0.5 - 0.5 = 0.8 - 0.5

2x + 0 = 0.3

2x = 3/10

Divide both sides by 2

2x ÷ 2 = ( 3/10 ) ÷ 2

x = 3/10 × 1/2

x = 3/20

_________________________________

<h2>Check :</h2>

3/20 + 3/2 + ( 3/20 - 1 ) = 4/5

3/20 + 30/20 + ( 3/20 - 20/20 ) = 4/5

(3 + 30)/20 + (3 - 20)/20 = 4/5

33/20 - 17/20 = 4/5

(33 - 17)/20 = 4/5

16/20 = 4/5

4 × 4 / 4 × 5 = 4/5

4/5 = 4/5

Thus we found the correct value of x .

And we're done...

Answer:

x = \frac{3}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x + \frac{3}{2} + (x - 1) = \frac{4}{5}

Multiply through by 10 ( the LCM of 2 and 5 ) to clear the fractions

10x + 15 + 10(x - 1) = 8

10x + 15 + 10x - 10 = 8

20x + 5 = 8 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

20x = 3 ( divide both sides by 20 )

x = \frac{3}{20}

Which value for x makes the sentence true? 1/10 + x = 1/7
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

3/70

Step-by-step explanation:

change 1/10 and 1/7 so the denominator (bottom number) is the same.  1/10= 7/70 and 1/7= 10/70 so you need 3/70 to make the two numbers equal.

On a board measuring 1x100, each square is numbered from
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

97

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following conditions :

board measuring 1x100, each square is numbered from 1 to 100

Three colors are used to paint the squares from left to right in the sequence :

one blue, two reds and three green squares in a repeated pattern.

What is the highest numbered square that is painted blue?

The sequence of painting is repeated after :

(1 + 2 + 3) = 6 successive squares

Since the number of squares = 100

Maximum complete repetition possible :

100 / 6 = 16 remainder 4

Hence 16 * 6 = 96 (the highest complete sequence terminates on the square numbered 96)

On the 97th square, another sequence begins which is a blue and the 100th square is painted the first of the 3 green colors.

Hence, the highest numbered square that is painted blue is 97

Arrange the following polynomial into descending order for x, then interpret the degree of the 3rd term. 2xy4 + 2x2y − 3y2 + 10x
Darina [25.2K]
The arrangement should be based on the decreasing degree of the terms which may be determined by the variable x as it should come first in alphabetical order. The polynomial is then,
                         10x³ + 2x²y + 2xy^4 - 3y²
The degree is equal to the sum of the exponents. Thus, the answer is 5 and it is letter D.
