Answer:

✅⅓(x - 5) = -⅔

✅distribute ⅓

✅x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

The difference of a number and 5 ==> x - 5

⅓ times the difference of a number and 5 equals -⅔, would be expressed as:

✅⅓(x - 5) = -⅔

✔️To solve for x, one possible first step is to distribute ⅓.

Thus,

⅓x - ⁵/3 = -⅔

Add ⁵/3 to both sides

⅓x = -⅔ + ⁵/3

⅓x = (-2 + 5)/3

⅓x = ³/3

⅓x = 1

Multiply both sides by 3

x = 3

What is 4(x-7)=2(x+3)?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

4(x−7)=2(x+3)

Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(x−7)=2(x+3)

4x+−28=2x+6

4x−28=2x+6

Subtract 2x from both sides.

4x−28−2x=2x+6−2x

x−28=6

Add 28 to both sides.

2x−28+28=6+28

2x=34

Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2  =  34/2

x = 17

Number three is D and number 4 is also D.

Explanation for number three:

When you divide 12 by 3, you get 4. This gives us the number we need to multiply 10 by to get our answer. 10 x 4 = 40

Explanation for number 4:

In the last question, the first step to getting to the answer was to divide the first two numbers. This is no different. When you divide 32.5 by 5, you get 6.5. Then you multiply 10 and 6.5, which equals 65.

san4es73 [151]
Length of train : 100
length of bridge : 400
distance covered by the train to cross the bridge : (100 + 400) = 500
time taken by the train to cross : 30

speed = distance / time
speed = 500/30
speed = 16.67 meters per second <===
