Answer:
180 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the number of pages in the book , then
x + 40 = x ( multiply through by 9 to clear the fraction )
7x + 360 = 9x ( subtract 7x from both sides )
360 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )
180 = x
The total number of pages in the book is 180
I believe you are expected to simplify. To do this all you do is group like terms (x, x², x³ etc.) and then simplify the coefficients.
13. 10z + 7z - 19z² - 5z² - 17z
first you can rearrange and group like terms (remember the bring the sign in front of each term with it). I would do it like this:
-19z² - 5z² +10z + 7z - 17z
Now simplify the coefficients:
-24z² + 0z
you can omit the 0z and your simplified answer is
-24z²
Main thing to remember here is that z and z² cannot be simplified together, nor can any variable that has an exponent because the exponent makes them differ.
(3/4)/(1/8)=(3/4)*(8/1)
24/4

Only te 1st one (1057), since it's a multiple of 7 (151 x 7 = 1057)
