Answer:

x=7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract the 4x from both sides of the equation

(2x+6)-4x=4x-3-4x

find common denominator

(2x+6)/5+(5(-4)x)/5=4x-3-4x

then combine fractions

(2x+6+5(-4)x)/5=4x-3-4x

then multiply the 5&4

(2x+6-20x)/5= 4x3-4x

combine terms

(-18x+6)/5= -3

then multiply everything by 5

-18x+6= -15

subtract the 6 from both sides

-18x= -21

divide -21 by -18

(-21)/(-18)=x

find greatest common multiple (3) and solve

x = 7/6

Bernice sells 135 sea shells by the sea shore every day. She shells each sea shel for 3 dollars. For how many days does Bernice
horrorfan [7]

First we want to calculate exactly how much money Bernice sells on a daily basis, so we can determine how many days it'll take to earn 2,430 dollars. We can do this by multiplying the amount of shells she sells every day by the amount she sells them for. So 135 sea shells multiplied by 3 dollars.

<u>135 * 3</u>

This comes up to 405 dollars every day, quite a significant amount considering she's selling shells. Now, divide 2,430 dollars by 405 dollars. This will give us the final result.

<u>2,430 / 405</u>

It will take Bernice exactly 6 days to earn 2,430 dollars.

Miss Sarah only wants one half of a sandwich she says Mr. tom will need one 16th of a pound of cheese for her sandwich Mr. Tom s
bekas [8.4K]
Aprroximately 1 pound equals 4 cups of cheese. With that in account,

1 lb = 4 cups
1/8 lb = X
X= 4*1/8
X= 4/8
X=1/2 cup
OR
1 lb =4 cups
1/16 lb = X
X=4 * 1/16
X= 4/16
X=1/4 cup

I may go with 1/16 of a pound as that is lesser cheese than 1/8. Hope this helps.
