- 5 + 5x = - 1 + 6x

- 5 + 5 + 5x = - 1 + 5 + 6x

5x = 4 + 6x

5x - 6x = 6x - 6x + 4

- x = 4

x = - 4

Answer:

The answer is that x = -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

You first take away the parenthesis so it would look like this: -5+5x=-1+6x

Then, you add 5 to both sides of the problem: -5+5x+5=-1+6x+5

Then, you simplify it down: 5x=6x+4

You then subtract 6x from each side: 5x-6x=6x+4-6x

Then simplify again: -x=4

Then, divide both sides by -1: -x/-1 = 4/-1

Then simplify to get x = -4.

Write 4 3/7 as a decimal.

Hi!

There are two ways to do this.

1. Start with the first part of the decimal, (4.) then divide 3/7 to get the second part.

3/7 = 0.43

4.43

2. Convert the mixed number 4 3/7 to a fraction.

4 x 7 = 28
28 + 3 = 31

31/7

Now convert that into a decimal.

31/7 = 4.43

The answer is 4.43

Hope this helps! :)
