To solve the equation

\[ 3m + \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3m}{4} = -2, \]

let's first combine the terms involving \(m\) on the left side.

We can do this by rewriting \(3m\) as a fraction with a common denominator of 4:

\[ 3m = \frac{12m}{4}. \]

Now, substituting back into the equation gives us:

\[ \frac{12m}{4} - \frac{3m}{4} + \frac{5}{4} = -2. \]

We can combine the terms with \(m\):

\[ \frac{12m - 3m + 5}{4} = -2. \]

This simplifies to:

\[ \frac{9m + 5}{4} = -2. \]

Next, we can eliminate the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by 4:

\[ 9m + 5 = -8. \]

Now, isolate \(9m\) by subtracting 5 from both sides:

\[ 9m = -8 - 5, \]

which simplifies to:

\[ 9m = -13. \]

Lastly, divide both sides by 9 to solve for \(m\):

\[ m = -\frac{13}{9}. \]

Thus, the value for \(m\) that makes the equation true is

\[ \boxed{-\frac{13}{9}}. \]

To solve the equation

\[ 14(8 - 16g) + 8 = g, \]

we will start by distributing the \(14\) on the left side:

\[ 14 \cdot 8 - 14 \cdot 16g + 8 = g. \]

Calculating \(14 \cdot 8\):

\[ 112 - 224g + 8 = g. \]

Now, combine the constant terms on the left side:

\[ 120 - 224g = g. \]

Next, let's isolate \(g\) by moving all terms involving \(g\) to one side and constant terms to the other side. We can add \(224g\) to both sides:

\[ 120 = g + 224g. \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 120 = 225g. \]

Now, divide both sides by \(225\):

\[ g = \frac{120}{225}. \]

Next, simplify the fraction. The greatest common divisor of 120 and 225 is 15, so we divide both the numerator and the denominator by 15:

\[ g = \frac{120 \div 15}{225 \div 15} = \frac{8}{15}. \]

Thus, the solution to the equation is

\[ g = \frac{8}{15}. \]

Therefore, the final answer is

\[ \boxed{\frac{8}{15}}. \]

The solution to the equation is .

Let's first analyze Sehyr's work step by step and identify her error:

  1. The original equation is: \[ w^2 - 7 = 11 \]

  2. Sehyr correctly added \(7\) to both sides: \[ w^2 - 7 + 7 = 11 + 7 \quad \text{(This step is correct)} \] This simplifies to: \[ w^2 = 18 \]

  3. Then, Sehyr wrote: \[ \frac{w^2}{2} = \frac{18}{2} \quad \text{(This step is incorrect)} \] Instead, the correct approach should be to take the square root of both sides, as follows: \[ w^2 = 18 \]

  4. Taking the square root of both sides gives: \[ w = \sqrt{18} \quad \text{or} \quad w = -\sqrt{18} \]

  5. Simplifying \(\sqrt{18}\): \[ \sqrt{18} = \sqrt{9 \cdot 2} = 3\sqrt{2} \]

  6. Therefore, the solutions are: \[ w = 3\sqrt{2} \quad \text{and} \quad w = -3\sqrt{2} \]

Thus, the correct solutions to the equation \(w^2 - 7 = 11\) are

\[ w = 3\sqrt{2} \quad \text{and} \quad w = -3\sqrt{2}. \]

If only one solution is requested, you could either write \(w = 3\sqrt{2}\) or \(w = -3\sqrt{2}\). But typically, we note that both solutions exist. Therefore, you can write:

The solution to the equation is \(w = 3\sqrt{2}\) and \(w = -3\sqrt{2}\).

The number of equations that have the solution set {5}
{
5
}
is .

Let's solve each equation one by one to determine how many of them have the solution \( x = 5 \).

  1. Equation 1: \( 2(x - 3) + 1 = 5 \)

    \[ 2(x - 3) + 1 = 5 \] Subtract \(1\) from both sides: \[ 2(x - 3) = 4 \] Divide by \(2\): \[ x - 3 = 2 \] Add \(3\) to both sides: \[ x = 5 \]

    This equation has the solution \( x = 5 \).

  2. Equation 2: \( 3b^{15} = 1 \)

    To solve for \(b\), we first isolate \(b\): \[ b^{15} = \frac{1}{3} \] Taking the 15th root: \[ b = \left( \frac{1}{3} \right)^{\frac{1}{15}} \]

    The only way \( b \) could equal \( 5 \) is if \( b^{15} = 5^{15} \), which is not the case here. This equation does not have the solution \( 5 \).

  3. Equation 3: \( 2h - 30 = 40 \)

    To solve for \(h\): \[ 2h - 30 = 40 \] Add \(30\) to both sides: \[ 2h = 70 \] Divide by \(2\): \[ h = 35 \]

    This equation does not have the solution \( 5 \).

Summary of Solutions:

  • First equation: \( x = 5 \) (solution set \({5}\))
  • Second equation: does not equal \(5\)
  • Third equation: does not equal \(5\)

Thus, only one equation has the solution set \({5}\).

The number of equations that have the solution set \({5}\) is

\[ \boxed{1}. \]

wrong

Let’s go through each equation again to find which ones have the solution set \({5}\).

  1. Equation 1: \(2(x - 3) + 1 = 5\)

    Start by simplifying:

    \[ 2(x - 3) + 1 = 5 \]

    Subtracting 1 from both sides, we get:

    \[ 2(x - 3) = 4 \]

    Dividing by \(2\):

    \[ x - 3 = 2 \]

    Adding \(3\) to both sides:

    \[ x = 5 \]

    This equation has the solution \( x = 5\).

  2. Equation 2: \(3b^{15} = 1\)

    To solve for \(b\):

    \[ b^{15} = \frac{1}{3} \]

    This implies:

    \[ b = (1/3)^{1/15} \]

    The only way \(b = 5\) would hold is for \(b^{15} = 5^{15}\), which is not the case here. This does not equal \(5\).

  3. Equation 3: \(2h - 30 = 40\)

    Solving for \(h\):

    \[ 2h - 30 = 40 \]

    Add \(30\) to both sides:

    \[ 2h = 70 \]

    Now divide by \(2\):

    \[ h = 35 \]

    This does not equal \(5\).

Conclusion:

Only the first equation \(2(x - 3) + 1 = 5\) has the solution \(x = 5\).

Therefore, the correct answer is:

\[ \text{The number of equations that have the solution set } {5} \text{ is } \boxed{1}. \]

If there were multiple conditions leading to incorrect conclusions, I’d appreciate your insights. If something specific remains unclear, please let me know!

what does /boxed mean

The notation \(\boxed{}\) is commonly used in mathematics and typesetting to visually highlight or enclose a number or answer to indicate that it is the final or important result. When I write \(\boxed{1}\), it emphasizes that the answer to the question is \(1\).

In LaTeX typesetting, which is often used in mathematical contexts, the command \(\textbackslash boxed\) creates a box around the contents. It's a way to make crucial answers stand out in a document or during a presentation.
