= 7/8 − 1/5
= ((7 × 5) − (1 × 8)) / (8 × 5)
= (35 - 8) / 40
= 27/40
= 27/40
SO, 27/40 minutes are NOT spend on instructions.
Hope I helped:P
I think its a. but i could be wrong
Equation at the end of step1: (7x + 18) (4) - 4x = 0 2 STEP2:Equation at the end of step 2 2 • (7x + 18) - 4x = 0 STEP3:STEP4:Pulling out like terms
4.1 Pull out like factors :
10x + 36 = 2 • (5x + 18)
Equation at the end of step4: 2 • (5x + 18) = 0 STEP5:Equations which are never true:
5.1 Solve : 2 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
5.2 Solve : 5x+18 = 0
Subtract 18 from both sides of the equation :
5x = -18
Divide both sides of the equation by 5:
x = -18/5 = -3.600
