3 less than the quotient of a number and 5 is -7

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:   The number is -20

Step-by-step explanation:

Take each part of the sentence and write what it is telling us:

3 less than the quotient of a number and 5 is -7

The quotient of a number and 5 is (X/5), where X is the "number."

3 less than  is (X/5) - 3

is -7  is = -7

Therefore:

3 less than the quotient of a number and 5 is -7 is:  (X/5) - 3 = -7

---

(X/5) - 3 = -7

(X/5)  = -4

X = -20

===

See if this works:

3 less than the quotient of -20 and 5 is -7

(-20/5) = -4

Three kless than -4 is -7:  It works

2. The perimeter of a rectangle is 56m. The length is two less than four times the width. Find the length.

Answers

Answer:

Length=22 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter=56 cm

let width=x

According to given condition:

length=4x-2 ...........(A)

Perimeter=2(length+width)

Substitute the values in above formula:

56cm=2(4x-2+x)

56cm=2(5x-2)

56cm=10x-4

(56+4)=10x

60 cm=10x

x=60cm/10

x=6cm

For the value of length :

Substitute the value of x in equation (A):

Length=4x-2

Length=4(6)-2 cm

Length=24-2 cm

Length=22 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Before removing brackets, multiply everything inside them by two.

2*1/5 m - 2 * 2/5 + 3/5

2/5 m - 4/5 + 3/5

2/5 m - 1/5

That's as much as you can do. No further reduction is possible.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{2m-1}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]2(\frac{1}{5} m-\frac{2}{5} )+\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

First, simplify [tex]\frac{1}{5} m[/tex] to [tex]\frac{m}{5}[/tex]:

[tex]2(\frac{m}{5} -\frac{2}{5} )+\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Merge the denominators:

[tex]2(\frac{m-2}{5} )+\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\frac{2m-4}{5} +\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Merge the denominators again:

[tex]\frac{2m-4+3}{5}[/tex]

Simplify one final time:

[tex]\frac{2m-1}{5}[/tex]

Two shops sell baked beans in different sized tins. Calculate the price per 1.25 kg for shop B. Give your answer in pence.

Shop A) 1.25kg for £4.85
Shop B) 250g for £0.88

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

you really need help with that ?

250g = 0.250kg = 0.25kg

comparing 0.25kg with 1.25kg : how many times of 0.25 is 1.25 ?

it is the same as with 25 to 125.

5 times !

so, you need to multiply the price also by 5 to get the price per 1.25kg :

0.88 × 5 = £4.40 = 440 pence per 1.25kg

Solve the equation-10 +1 +7x =37

Answers

Answer:

Answer in Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

-10 + 1 + 7x = 37

-9 + 7x = 37

Add 9 on both sides to leave 7x alone

7x = 46

Divide by 7 to leave x alone

x = 46/7 or 6.57

If the equation is positive 10 at the beginning instead of -10 then this is the answer for that:

10 + 1 + 7x = 37

11 + 7x = 37

Subtract 11 from both sides to leave 7x alone

7x = 26

Divide by 7 to leave x alone

x = 26/7 or 3.7

Answers

Using linear functions, it is found that the correct option is:

Equation A has a steeper slope, because [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] is greater than [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex].

A linear function has the following format:

[tex]y = ax + b[/tex]

In which:

a is the slope, which is the rate of change.The higher the slope, the steeper the function is:

Linear equation A is given by:

[tex]y = \frac{4}{5}x[/tex]

Linear equation B passes through points (0, 2) and (5, 4). Since the slope between two points is given by change in y divided by change in x, we have that:

[tex]m = \frac{4 - 2}{5 - 0} = \frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Equation A has a higher slope, hence, it is steeper, and the correct option is:

Equation A has a steeper slope, because [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] is greater than [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex].

Find x in terms of the other letters a( x + b ) = c( x + d )

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{cd-ab}{a-c}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is worded in a complicated way. All it says is to solve the equation for x. Do this by isolating x on one side of the equation.

First step is to distribute the a and c on either side,

ax+ab=cx+cd

Subtract cx from both sides,

ax+ab-cx=cd

Next, subtract ab from both sides,

ax-cx=cd-ab

Then, factor out x from the left side,

x(a-c)=cd-ab

Finally, divide both sides by a-c,

[tex]x=\frac{cd-ab}{a-c}[/tex]

Write an equation for the line that goes through (-2,6) and is parallel to the line y=1/2x+9

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Therefore the new equation will have a slope(m) = 1/2

Substitute m = 1/2 and point (-2, 6) into y = mx + b to solve for "b"

y = mx + b

6 = 1/2(-2) + b

6 = -1 + b

7 = b

The new equation: y = mx + b

                                y = 1/2x + 7
