Answer:

x = - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 8 - \frac{5}{3} x = 17 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

- 24 - 5x = 51 ( add 24 to both sides )

- 5x = 75 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

x = - 15

Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume that the question is

-8-(5/3)x=17\\

Then we have

-(5/3)x=17+8\\

Multiply both sides by -(3/5) to get

x=25\cdot (-3/5)\\x=(25/5)\cdot (-3)\\x=5\cdot (-3)\\x=-15

Take 9.5 gallons 6 1/3 poured out how much water is left in the tank
elena55 [62]
We can first convert 9.5 into fraction :

9.5= 9 1/2

Then we can use deduction to find out the answer:

9 1/2 - 6 1/3

=19/2 - 19/3

We change it to the same denominator:

=19×3/6 - 19×2/6

= 57/6 - 38/6

= 19/6

Therefore there are 19/6 or 3 1/6 gallons left in the tank.

Hope it helps!
