I would start by removing fraction
Multiply both sides by 6
5/6x * 6 = 15 * 6
5x = 90
Now divide by 5

Solution: x = 18

sergeinik [125]

Isaiah will mow 9 lawns in 3 hours at the given rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Lawns mowed in 25 hours = 75 lawns

We will find unit rate in terms of lawns;

75 lawns = 25 hours

1 lawn = $\frac{25}{75}=\frac{1}{3}\ hour$

9 lawns = $\frac{1}{3}*9$

9 lawns = 3 hours

Isaiah will mow 9 lawns in 3 hours at the given rate.

Five more than the quotient of a number and 3 equals 2.

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2\ or\ n:3+5=2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2\\\\\dfrac{n}{3}-\text{the quotient of a number}\ n\ \text{ and 3}\\\\...+5-\text{five more than}$

If you want a solution:

$\dfrac{n}{3}+5=2$ subtract 5 from both sides

$\dfrac{n}{3}+5-5=2-5$

$\dfrac{n}{3}=-3$ multiply both sides by 3

$3\!\!\!\!\diagup\cdot\dfrac{n}{3\!\!\!\!\diagup}=(3)(-3)\\\\n=-9$

Please help!!! i cant figure it out

GenaCL600 [577]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Given;

f(x) = 17x + 9

h(x) = 4x

To find: f(x)-h(x)

f(x)-h(x)= 17x + 9 - 4x

= 13x + 9

Therefore, f(x)-h(x) = 13x + 9.

Hope it helps!
