To solve for x, we can use inverse operations to isolate x by getting rid of the fraction.

First, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of -3/5, which is -5/3, to cancel out the fraction on the left side:

x = (2/5) * (-5/3)

Simplifying, we get:

x = -10/15

x = -2/3

The correct option is:
D) -23 - 2/3 - 3/2
Choose the best equation that fits the word problem below.

Sarah is planning to buy some books. Each book (b) costs $15. How many books can Sarah purchase if she has saved $60?

A
15 + 60 = b

B
15 + b = 60

C
60b = 15

D
15b = 60
The best equation that fits the word problem is:

B) 15 + b = 60

This equation represents the fact that the total cost (15b) plus the $15 Sarah has saved must equal $60, in order for her to be able to purchase the books.
Spencer prepaid a 12-month membership to Power Score Gym. He recieved a one-time discount of $35 for prepaying. Spencer paid a total of $205.

Which equation can Spencer use to find m, the regular cost per month?

A
12m - 35 = 205

B
35(m - 12) = 205

C
12(m - 35) = 205

D
35m - 12 = 205
The equation that Spencer can use to find m, the regular cost per month, is:

A) 12m - 35 = 205

This equation represents the fact that the cost of 12 months (12m) minus the one-time discount ($35) is equal to the total amount Spencer paid ($205).
Solve the equation and show all steps:
5x-7=3
To solve the equation 5x - 7 = 3, we need to isolate the variable x.

First, we can add 7 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the constant term on the left side:

5x - 7 + 7 = 3 + 7

Simplifying, we have:

5x = 10

Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 5 to solve for x:

(5x)/5 = 10/5

Simplifying further, we get:

x = 2

So the solution to the equation is x = 2.
Solve the equation, show all steps:
y/2 + 22 = 28
To solve the equation (y/2) + 22 = 28, we need to isolate the variable y.

First, we can subtract 22 from both sides of the equation to get rid of the constant term on the right side:

(y/2) + 22 - 22 = 28 - 22

Simplifying, we have:

(y/2) = 6

Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for y:

(2)*(y/2) = 6*(2)

Simplifying further, we get:

y = 12

So the solution to the equation is y = 12.
Solve the equation and show all steps:
2/3n - 6 = -8
To solve the equation (2/3)n - 6 = -8, we need to isolate the variable n.

First, we can add 6 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the constant term on the left side:

(2/3)n - 6 + 6 = -8 + 6

Simplifying, we have:

(2/3)n = -2

Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/3, which is 3/2, to solve for n:

(3/2)(2/3)n = -2(3/2)

Simplifying further, we get:

(1)n = -3

n = -3

So the solution to the equation is n = -3.
