Answer:
x=-5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x = the number
x + 1/6x + 2 1/2x + 7 = 12 1/2
3 + (1/6 + 1/2)x = 12 1/2 - 7
3 + (1/6 + 3/6)x = 5 1/2
3 2/3x = 5 1/2
x = (11/2) / (11/3)
x = 11 / 2 * 3 / 11
x = 3/2
x = 1 1/2
Answer:
$40.50 for the miles and 1.75 x P (passangers)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since $2.25 is the fee for miles, 2.25 x 18 = $40.50
and since it depends on the group, ima say its probably 3, the passenger fee would be $5.25
that would add up to about $45.75
but if there is a different amount of passengers, just multiply it by $1.75 then add it to $40.50!
So you don't know the value of x, y, or z; all you're told is to solve for x. This is not impossible (even though it may seem like it). Your answer will have several variables in it, but in algebra you won't always have the complete answer.
Start with the equation: 4x - 5 / y = 2z
The first thing you'll want to do to it is try to get x alone on one side.
4x - 5 / y = 2z
+5 +5 --> 4x / y = 2z +5
*y *y --> 4x = y (2z + 5)
/4 /4 --> x = (y (2z + 5)) / 4
Your final answer will be: x = (y (2z +5)) / 4
Hope it makes sense to you!!
