1. 1,5 divided by 2 is 0,75 so on the right side its 0,75
2. We make x/8 = 0,75 | *8
so we get: x = 0,75 * 8
which is the same as x = 6
so the answer is x = 6
2x+4y=0
3x+y=10
So what we want to do is get y onto one side by itself using whatever equation you like.
So I'm taking 2x+4y=0 and subtracting 4y from both sides
So we end up with
2x=4y
Divide both sides by four
2/4x is 1/2 x
So we get 1/2x=y
Take this and plug it into the other equation
3x+y=10
3x+1/2x=10
Add your like terms
3 1/2x=10
Putting 3 1/2 as a mixed number we get 7/2
So..
7/2x=10
Multiply by the opposite of 7/2 on both sides
Which is 2/7 this will cancel out the left side.
So we end up with
X= 10•2/7
X=20/7
Which is 2 and 6/7 as a mixed number.
He was wrong because, although three is greater than five, the value of the three is in the ten thousands place, while the five is in the thousands place. Therefore, the correct answer would be that 36594 is greater than 5980.
Hey!
To solve this equation, we'd first have to apply the distributing rule to this equation.
<em>Original Equation :</em>

<em>New Equation {Changed by Applying the Distribution Rule} :</em>

· 3a · 2 +

And now we simplify.
<em>Old Equation :</em>

· 3a · 2 +

<em>New Equation {Old Equation Simplified} :</em>

- 12a + 4
<em>So, the equation

simplified is</em>
- 12a + 4.Hope this helps!
