Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x + 5 = 17

First, combine the constants by subtracting 5 from each side.

-6x = 17 - 5

-6x = 12

Now you want x by itself, so divide both sides by -6.

x = -2

Check your answer by plugging x = -2 into the original equation.

-6(-2) + 5 = 17

12 + 5 = 17

17 = 17

Your answer is correct.

The ratio of the number of beads Karen had to the number of beads Patricia had was 2:5 .After Patricia bought another 75 beads,t
Andre45 [30]
We can bring the ratios to a similar form, because 2:5 is the same as 4:10 (we can mupltiply rations by the same number)

so one ratio is 4:10 and the other is 4:15 and the difference is is 75 beads

in this ratio, we can see each number corresponding to a "unit" of beads: that means that what changed is that Patricia now has 5 more such groups (15-10=5), and since she has 75 beads more each unit must be 75/5=15.

so afterwards (and before) Karen had 4 such units, that is 60, and Patricia before had 10 such units, that is 150.

Kay [80]

Answer:

$39.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is 20% off, we would multiply by .8, as we subtract the .2 (20%) off of the price.

$49.95 x 0.8 = $39.96
