Answer:
1. x = -1.5y
2. 5 (2x-3)
3. p = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Simplifying
7x + 2y + -3x + 4y = 0
Reorder the terms:
7x + -3x + 2y + 4y = 0
Combine like terms: 7x + -3x = 4x
4x + 2y + 4y = 0
Combine like terms: 2y + 4y = 6y
4x + 6y = 0
Solving
4x + 6y = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6y' to each side of the equation.
4x + 6y + -6y = 0 + -6y
Combine like terms: 6y + -6y = 0
4x + 0 = 0 + -6y
4x = 0 + -6y
Remove the zero:
4x = -6y
Divide each side by '4'.
x = -1.5y
Simplifying
x = -1.5y
2)
Common factor
10x - 15
5 (2x-3)
3) Simplifying
5p = 3p + 8
Reorder the terms:
5p = 8 + 3p
Solving
5p = 8 + 3p
Solving for variable 'p'.
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3p' to each side of the equation.
5p + -3p = 8 + 3p + -3p
Combine like terms: 5p + -3p = 2p
2p = 8 + 3p + -3p
Combine like terms: 3p + -3p = 0
2p = 8 + 0
2p = 8
Divide each side by '2'.
p = 4
Simplifying
p = 4
Answer:11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
distance=6 2/5 + 2 3/4 + 2 1/3
d=(5x6+2)/5 + (4x2+3)/4 + (3x2+1)/3
d=32/5 + 11/4 + 7/3
d=(12x32+15x11+20x7) ➗ 60
d=(384+165+140) ➗ 60
d=689 ➗ 60
d=11.5
Answer:
x(1 - .4)
Step-by-step explanation:
x = regular price.
1 - .4 = .6 = 60%
The sale price is equal to the full price (aka x) minus the discounted price (40% of x = 40/100 times x = .4x)
Therefore sale price = x - .4x or x(1 - .4)
