Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4 ( x - 7 ) = -6x + 12
→ Expand brackets
4x - 28 = -6x + 12
→ Add 6x to both sides
10x - 28 = 12
→ Add 28 to both sides
10x = 30
→ Divide both sides by 10
x = 3
This problem is simply asking us to add the weights which are presented as fractions. You can easily get the answer if you input them directly in a calculator. But I think the challenge here is to manually add fractions.
Let's add the two 1/4 lb weights because it is easier for they have a common denominator. Just simply add the numerators.
1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4
Then, add with this the fraction part of 2 1/5.
2/4 + 1/5 = ?
The least common denominator is 4*5 = 20. Then divide 20 with each denominator and multiply to their respective numerator.
2/4 + 1/5 = [(20/4 * 2) + (20/5 *1)]/20 = 14/20
14/20 is simplified to 7/10. Then add the whole number 2. <em>Therefore, the sum of all weights is 2 7/10 pounds.</em>

Answer:
2304
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given :- </u>
- A geometric sequence is given to us which is 9 , -18 , 36.
And we need to find out the 9th term of the sequence. Here firstly we should find the Common Ratio and then we can substitute the respective values in the formula to find the nth term of a geometric sequence .
<u>Common Ratio :- </u>
CR = -18÷ 9 = -2
<u>The </u><u>9</u><u> th term :- </u>
T_n = arⁿ - ¹
T_9 = 9× (-2) ⁹ - ¹
T_9 = 9 × (-2)⁸
T_9 = 9 × 256
T_9 = 2304
<u>Hence the 10th term is </u><u>2</u><u>3</u><u>0</u><u>4</u><u>.</u>
