Answer:

  a = $0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a sharpener is 'a', and the cost of a folder is $2.80 more, so is a+2.80. The total cost of 4 sharpeners and 7 folders is ...

  4a +7(a+2.80) = 30.05

  11a = 10.45 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 19.60

  a = 0.95 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 11

The cost of a sharpener is a = $0.95.

Solve for w.<br><br> 5w + 9z = 2z + 3w<br><br> w = z<br> w = z<br> w = –2z<br> w = –7z
Semenov [28]

5w + 9z = 2z + 3w

Move terms with w to the left - subtract 3w from both sides

2w + 9z = 2z

Subtract 9z from both sides

2w = -7z

Divide both sides by 2

w = \frac{-7}{2}z

How do you simplify this
Dafna11 [192]

Top:

x / (x + 1) - 1 / x

= [x^2 - (x +1)] / x(x+1)

= (x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1)

Bottom:

x / (x + 1) + 1 / x

= [x^2 + (x +1)] / x(x+1)

= (x^2 + x + 1 ) / x (x+1)

Now you have:

(x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1)

----------------------------

(x^2 + x + 1 ) / x (x+1)

= (x^2 - x - 1 ) / x (x+1) * x (x+1) / (x^2 + x + 1 )

= (x^2 - x - 1 ) /(x^2 + x + 1 )

Answer:

x^2 - x - 1

---------------------

x^2 + x + 1
