how would you solve -5(x - 1) = 40

Answers

Answer 1
you would distribute the -5 to the x and the -1, so it would be:
-5x+5=40
you would then subtract 5 from both sides, so you would get:
-5x=35
you would then divide by -5 on both sides, so you would get:
x=-7
Answer 2

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the distributed property: -5x - -5 = 40Simplify: -5x + 5 = 40Subtract 5 from each side, so it now looks like this: -5x = 35Divide each side by -5 to cancel out the -5 next to x. It should now look like this: x = -7

I hope this helps!

Jerry has 7 3/4 dozen donuts. He purchased another 4.25 dozen donuts. How many dozens of donuts does he have now?

Answers

Answer:

12 dozen

Step-by-step explanation:

Relatively easy stuff, just recall fractionsA dozen means  12he has 7 dozen (7 x 12=84) and 3/4 dozen (3/4 x 12=9) so that's 84+9= 93 donutshe gets 4.25, which is the same as 4 1/4, so its 4 dozen (4 x 12=48) and 1/4 dozen (1/4 x 12=3) so that's 48+3= 51 donutsAdd what you got 93 + 51 = 144 donutsThen divide this by 12 to get the number of dozens144/12 = 12 dozen

Answer:

12 dozens of donuts

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to change the decimal into a fraction. The decimal, 4.25, is the same as 4 25/100. You can reduce 4 25/100 to 4 1/4 by diving both the numerator and denomiator by 25.  Now that both of our numbers are fractins, we can just add the fractions up. 7 3/4 + 4 1/4 = 11 4/4 = 12\

Answers

Answer:

400/2=200

200-25=175

J=175

F=225

Step-by-step explanation:

175J+225F=400

Answer:

Finn earned 225 and Jake earned 175

Step-by-step explanation:

400 divided by 2= 200

200-25=175 which would be what jake earned.

200+25=125.

5x+3y=18 and 3x-3y=15 solve for y and x using elimination method

Answers

Answer:

x = 4.125 or [tex]4\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

y = -0.875 or [tex]-\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 3y = 18

3x - 3y = 15

3y and -3y can be cancled out becuase + and - cancel out and they both have 3y in them. We don't have to switch any signs in this case. You can just add them all exept 3y and -3y becuase they will be canceled out.

8x = 33

x = 4.125

Now we know what x is. We need to figure out what y is now. To figure out y chose an equation from the problem and plug in the x value. Lets chose 3x - 3y = 15.

3(4.125) - 3y = 15

12.375 - 3y = 15

-3y = 2.625

y = -0.875

Now we know what y is.  I hope this helps :)

The rectangle and the trapezoid have the same area. What is the length l of the rectangle?



l=
ft

Answers

The nacer is 66 or67 not that shere

The length 'l' of the rectangle will be;

⇒ l = 18 feet

What is mean by Rectangle?

A rectangle is a two dimension figure with 4 sides, 4 corners and 4 right angles. The opposite sides of the rectangle are equal and parallel to each other.

Given that;

The rectangle and the trapezoid have the same area.

Now,

Since, The rectangle and the trapezoid have the same area.

Hence, We get;

Area of rectangle = l × 9

And, Area of trapezoid = 1/2 (24 + 12 ) × 9

                                   = 1/2 × 36 × 9

                                   = 18 × 9

                                   = 162

So, We get;

⇒ l × 9 = 162

⇒ l = 162/9

⇒ l = 18 feet

Thus, The length 'l' of the rectangle will be;

⇒ l = 18 feet
