Respuesta :

You asked: "what is six less than the quotient of a number and five is one"

I answer: "six less than the quotient of a number and five is one" is a mathematical open statement, a predicate. in fact, it is an open statement and you cannot decide the truth value without quantification.

Answer:

x = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

I think this means

x/5 - 6 = 1                   Add 6 to both sides.

x/5 - 6 + 6 = 6 + 1       Combine

x / 5 = 7                       Multiply both sides by 5

x/ 5 * 5 = 7 * 5             Combine

x =  35
