Answer:

x= −1/2, x=52/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+7)=13

(2)(x)+(2)(7)=13(Distribute)

2x+14−14=13−14

2x=−1

2x/<u><em>2</em></u>=−1/<u>2</u>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5(x−7)=17

(5)(x)+(5)(−7)=17(Distribute)

5x+−35=17

5x−35=17

5x−35+35=17+35

5x=52

5x/<u><em>5</em></u>=52/<u>5</u>

What is the remainder of 67 divided by 3?
hammer [34]
The remainder for 67 divided by 3 would be 1 because (this might be a bad explanation since i'm not good at explaining math without showing u my work) if u do divide 6 by 3, 3x2 is 6 and 6-6 is 0. Then if u divide 7 by 3, then 6 is the closest u can get to 7 without multiplying by a decimal. Then if u do 7-6, u get 1 and u cant divide 1 by 3 so the remainder would be 1.
