What value of c makes the equation true?

−3−3/4(c−4)=5/4

C = -5/3 = -1 2/3

Write down the equation and solve for c

-3 - 3/4(c-4) = 5/4

Distribute the 3/4

-3 -(3/4)c + 3 = 5/4

Perform the addition of -3 and 3

-(3/4)c = 5/4

Divide both sides by -(3/4)

c = 5/4 / (-3/4) = 5/4 * (-4/3) = -20/12 = -5/3

So the value of c is -5/3. Let's verify it.

-3 - 3/4(-5/3 - 4) = x

Distribute the -3/4

-3 - (3/4)(-5/3) + (3/4)4 = x

-3 +15/12 + 3 = x

Combine terms

15/12 = x

Simplify

5/4 = x

One shot. if 60% of 10 is 6, then what is 70%? we know it would be seven (since 60% is mathematically 60/100, or 6/10, then 70% is 70/100, or 7/10) but we can check anyway using ratios: 6 : 60% = x : 70%*inverse multiplicationx * 60% = 6 * 70%*divide both sides by 60%x = (6 * 70%) / 60%x = 7and since he has made 6 shots already, he would need just one more to get 7 shots or 70%. if the explanation is too confusing, comment and i will try to
