Answer:
I'm assuming that you meant to type: The question is x/5=1/2+1/8 ; X= ?
If so, we're solving for x.
x/5 = 1/2 + 1/8
2 is a factor of 8, so let's start with common denominators.
x/5 = 1/2 *(4/4) + 1/8
x/5 = 4/8 + 1/8
x/5 = 5/8 As long as we just need to know the value of x, let's use inverse operations.
x/5 *5 = 5/8 *5
x = 25/8 or 3.125
Answer:
the answer is x>6
Step-by-step explanation:
hope dis right
why do they be giving us this hardwork :(
5x - y = 3 ------------ (1)
6x - y = 8 ------------ (2)
From (1):
5x - y = 3
y = 5x - 3 ------------ Sub into (2)
6x - (5x - 3) = 8
6x - 5x + 3 = 8
x + 3 = 8
x = 5 ------------------- Sub into (1)
5x - y = 3
5(5) - y = 3
25 - y = 3
y = 25 - 3
y = 22
---------------------------------
Ans: x = 5, y = 22
---------------------------------
Since c=15 and d=3, we replace the c and d variables with 15 and 3.
0.5x15-1.7x3
0.5x15=7.5
1.7x3=5.1
Now subtract.
7.5-5.1=2.4
