Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
"Using the variable x for unknown number what is five more than the quotient of a number and 6 equals 7" translates into 5 + x/6 = 7.
To solve use inverse operations.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
all you really need to do is multiply your decimal (15.8) by your percent (5) so, you problem would look like 15.8(.05) (note it is .<em>0</em>5 because there need to be 2 decimal places) so, your answer is .79
12n = 3-5n-1 or n =3-5n-1???
A point , (x,y) is reflected across the y axis. the resulting point is (-x,y)
so
if (5.75,0) is the reflected point, then (-5.75,0) is the original
the distance is the double the absolute value of the x value (basically a horizontal line beteen the 2 points)
so
2|-5.75|=2(5.75)=11.5
distance is 11.5 units
