(1)
10(1+3x)=-20
Cross multiply.
10+30x=-20
Isolate x on one side. So you would subtract 10 on each side. and one side will cross each other out. leaving you with,
30x=-20-10
Subtract 10 from -20.
30x=-30
Divide each side by 30 to get x.
30x÷30=-30÷30
Therefore,
x=-1
(2)
-5x-8(1+7x)=-8
Cross multiply -8(1+7x)
-5x-8-56x=-8
Isolate all x's on one side. So you would add 8 on each side. and one side will cross each other out. leaving you with,
-5x-56x=-8+8
Add 8 to -8.
-5x-56x=0
Subtract -56x from -5x
-61x=0
Divide each side by -61
-61x÷-61=0÷-61
Therefore,
x=0

Answer: ? = 72
Step-by-step explanation:
We will set up a proportion to solve.
Now, we will cross-multiply.
? * 35 = 56 * 45
35? = 2,520
? = 72
Ok so the wording is confusing
is it
A. 3 friends took 1 slice each (total is 3 slice) or
B. 3 friends took 1 slice total
if A, go to AAAAAA
if B. to to BBBBB
AAAAAAAAAA
3 slices taken
fraction is parts out of whole
what is left
left=original-taken
taken=3
original=8
8-3=5
5=left
fraction is 5/total=5/8
BBBBBB
taken=1
fraction is parts out of whole
what is left
left=original-taken
taken=1
original=8
8-1=7
7=left
fraction is 7/total=7/8
if 3 slices taken total then 5/8 left
if 1 slice taken totl then 7/8 left
