Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Maybe you want to find x such that ...
2/7 = x/(x +10)
2(x +10) = 7x . . . . . . multiply by 7(x+10)
20 = 5x . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2x, simplify
4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

<em>Additional comment</em>
You can almost solve this "by inspection" if you recognize the difference of the denominator and numerator is 5 on the left and 10 on the right. If you multiply the fraction on the left by 2/2, you get 4/14, the values in x/(x+10) in the fraction on the right.
.21 as a percentage is 21%
You can divide 7.98 by 21 then multiply by 100 which gives you an answer of 38.

Answer:
Your answers are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The "<" sign means less than and the ">" sign means greater than. It is clear that you have a handle on them.
1.) If Steve has no more that 28 toys, then the less than sign would represent the fact that Steve can have a maximum of 28 toys, and no more.
2.) If the temperature is more that 28 degrees Fahrenheit, then the greater than sign is appropriate in order to imply that the variable represents a higher temperature.
3.) If tony is younger than 29 years old, then the less than sign fits to show that the variable represents an age that is smaller than 29.
4.) If the table is greater than 29 kilograms, then the greater than sign is needed. It shows that the table has a greater weight than 29 kilograms.
Hope this helps! :D
Answer:
q=12.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3(q+3)=5 can be translated to (q+3)/3=5.
Multiply each side by 3 to get q+3=15.
Subtract 3 from each side to get q=12.
Can you explain what you mean by "Explain why 1/3 is a fraction?"
