Manipulate the equation y=5x-11 so that it is written in terms of x. Which equation is equivalent to y=5x-11? A. x=(y/11 ) -5 B. x=y+11/5 C.y-11/5 D. x=(y/5) +11
To write the equation y=5x-11 in terms of x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
First, we can add 11 to both sides of the equation:
y + 11 = 5x.
Then, we can divide both sides of the equation by 5:
(y + 11)/5 = x.
So, the equivalent equation in terms of x is:
x = (y + 11)/5.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A. x = (y + 11)/5.
First, we can add 11 to both sides of the equation:
y + 11 = 5x.
Then, we can divide both sides of the equation by 5:
(y + 11)/5 = x.
So, the equivalent equation in terms of x is:
x = (y + 11)/5.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A. x = (y + 11)/5.
Charity is buying peaches at the store. The cost of the peaches are $1.30 per pound. If she has $6.50 to spend on peaches, how many pounds (x) can she buy?
Set up an equation to solve the problem.
A.
1.30x=6.50
B.
1.30+x=6.50
C.
1.30/6.50=x
D.
6.50x=1.30
Set up an equation to solve the problem.
A.
1.30x=6.50
B.
1.30+x=6.50
C.
1.30/6.50=x
D.
6.50x=1.30
To solve the problem, we need to set up an equation. Since the cost of the peaches is $1.30 per pound and Charity has $6.50 to spend, we can set up the equation:
1.30x = 6.50
So, the correct answer is:
A. 1.30x = 6.50
1.30x = 6.50
So, the correct answer is:
A. 1.30x = 6.50
Jackson solved the problem 3x-8=2(2x-7) using the following steps:
STEP 1: Use Distributive Property to get 3x-8=4x-14
STEP 2: Use Addition Property of Equality to get 3x = 4x-14+8
STEP 3: Combine Like Terms to get 3x = 4x-6
STEP 4: Use Subtraction Property of Equality to get 3x-4x= -6
STEP 5: Combine Like Terms to get (-x)=-6
What is the last step?
A.
Use Property of Equality to get x= (-6)
B.
Divide both sides by -1 to get x=6
C.
Divide both sides by -1 to get x= (-6)
D.
Use Multiplication Property of Equality to get x=6
STEP 1: Use Distributive Property to get 3x-8=4x-14
STEP 2: Use Addition Property of Equality to get 3x = 4x-14+8
STEP 3: Combine Like Terms to get 3x = 4x-6
STEP 4: Use Subtraction Property of Equality to get 3x-4x= -6
STEP 5: Combine Like Terms to get (-x)=-6
What is the last step?
A.
Use Property of Equality to get x= (-6)
B.
Divide both sides by -1 to get x=6
C.
Divide both sides by -1 to get x= (-6)
D.
Use Multiplication Property of Equality to get x=6
To find the last step in solving the equation, we need to identify the final operation used to isolate the variable x.
From Step 4: 3x - 4x = -6, we have obtained -x = -6.
To isolate x, we need to perform division.
Therefore, the last step is:
C. Divide both sides by -1 to get x = (-6).
From Step 4: 3x - 4x = -6, we have obtained -x = -6.
To isolate x, we need to perform division.
Therefore, the last step is:
C. Divide both sides by -1 to get x = (-6).
