Answer:
1a) 25, 1b) 3, 2a) 14, 2b) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1a)
x/5 + 10 = 15
Subtract 10 from both sides:
x/5 = 15 - 10
x/5 = 5
Multiply both sides by 5:
x = 5 * 5
x = 25
1b)
25x + 26 = 101
Subtract 26 from both sides:
25x = 101 - 26
25x = 75
Divide both sides by 25:
x = 75/25
x = 3
2a)
Four less than a number is 10.
Let's call the number x. This means:
x - 4 = 10
Now add 4 to both sides:
x = 10 + 4
x = 14
2b)
The product of three and a number equals 12.
Let's call the number x. This means:
3 * x = 12
Now divide both sides by 3:
x = 12/3
x = 4
How many sixths are in 1/2?
3
Step-by-step explanation:
i did it
4x + 6 < -6
subtract 6 from each side
4x < -12
divide by 4
x < -3
- 2/5 x-9 < 9/10
multiply each side by 10 to get rid of the fractions
10*(- 2/5 x-9) < 10*9/10
distribute
-4x -90 <9
add 90 to each side
-4x < 99
divide by -4 (which flips the inequality)
x> -99/4
x> -24 3/4
Do 2x2 first which is 4 and then 5+12 which is 17 . 17/4 is 4.25
