To convert 2/14 into lowest terms you have to divide by the greatest common factor. The greatest common factor of 2 and 14 is 2.
2 ÷ 2 = 1
14 ÷ 2 = 7
1/7 is in lowest terms
Answer:
1) y=8/3=2 2/3 2) x=4 3) x+10
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 10+5-7=3y
Calculate the sum or difference.
8=3y
Swap the sides of the equation.
3y=8
Divide both sides by 3.
y=8/3=2 2/3
2) -10x+5x+5=-15
Collect like terms.
-5x+5=-15
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change the sign.
-5x=-15-5
Calculate the difference.
-5x=-20
Divide both sides by -5.
x=4
3) 3x+2x-4x+10
Collect like terms.
(3+2-4)x+10
Calculate the sum or difference.
1x+10
When the term has a coefficient of 1, it doesn't have to be written.
x+10
Hope this helps :)
I would try -50 i really dont get what your asking but i did -10 -40=50
Answer:
34 nickels, 39 dimes, 78 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
q = quarters, d = dimes, n = nickels
n = d - 5
q = 2d
.25q + .10d + .05n = 7.55
<em>Plug in the first 2 equations into the third one</em>
.5d + .10d + .05(d - 5) = 7.55
<em>Open up the Parenthesis</em>
.5d + .10d + .5d - .25 = 7.55
<em>Combine Like Terms</em>
.2d - .25 = 7.55-->
.2d = 7.8 -->
d = 39 -->
n = 39 - 5 = 34
q = 2(39) = 78
The variable 'a' represents how much Arthur saves. Because D'John saves $8 per week (7 days), he saves $56. Arthur saves four times more than D'John so $56*4 equals Arthur's total savings for the week; $224.
a=$8(7)*4
a=$56*4
a=$224
