Answer:
a. 2.5
b. 2.333
c. 2.85
Step-by-step explanation:
A) 1. subtract -x on both sides 2. to get 3x-1/2=7
3. Add 1/2 on both sides 4. to get 3x=7.5
5. divide 3 on both sides 6. To get... x=2.5
B)1. Same process. 2. x+2=13/3
3. x=13/3-2 4. x= 2.33(repeating)
C) 1. same process. 2. 2x-x/3=3+7/4
3. 2x-x/3=4.75 4. Isolate -x/3
5.-x/3=4.75-2x 6. multiply both sides by 3
7. -x=14.25-6x 8. 5x=14.25
9. x= 2.85
* remember to distribute the 3 to each variable.
9+x / 3x = 5/6
If you look at it as a proportion, then you can "cross-multiply" it"
(9+x) · 6 = 3x · 5
54 + 6x = 15x
Subtract 6x from each side:
54 = 9x
Divide each side by 9 :
6 = x
Answer:
5 Outer and 1 lone pair
Step-by-step explanation:
A square pyramidal shape results when one of the bonds of an octahedron structure is occupied by a lone pair.
Hence there are 5 bonded atoms and one lone pair. The hybridization about the central atom is 
.
One of the most common example is Xenon tetraflouride. 
. Looking at its structure we can see that it has 5 pairs of outer atoms and one lone pair. With its coordination number 5. The shape of the orbitals is octahedral.
