When you divide two fractions, you do Keep, Change, Flip or KCF. So you keep the 3/5, you change the division sign to a multiplication sign, then flip the 3/15 to 15/3. So the new equation is 3/5x15/3. Then you simply the two sides so it becomes 1/1x3/1.....
Meaning the answer is 3.
I assume that the given equation above is 0.9(x+1.4)−2.3+0.1x=1.6 and not 0.9(x+1.4)−2.3+0.1x=1.60.9(x+1.4)−2.3+0.1x=1.6, I think there is a typo error on this. Based on equation I assumed the answer is 2.64.Thank you for posting your question here, I hope my answer helps.
4x - 10 = 34
4x +10 +10
4x = 44
4x/4 = 44/4
x = 11
Apply to Row 2 : Row 2 + Row 1
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y + 4z = -3
2x + 3y + 3z = 5
Apply to Row 3: Row 3 - Row 1
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y + 4z = -3
y = 5
Apply to Row 3: Row 3 - Row 2
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y + 4z = -3
-4z = 8
Simplify rows
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y + 4z = -3
z = -2

Apply to Row 2: Row 2 - 4 Row 3
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y = 5
z = -2
Apply to Row 1: Row 1 - 3 Row 3
2x + 2y = 6
y = 5
z = -2
Apply to Row 1: Row 1 - 2 Row 2
2x = -4
y = 5
z = 2
Simplify the rows
<u>x = -2</u>
<u>y = 5</u>
<u>z = -2</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
=-12.166/-1.54 [if - is in both numerator and denominator then they are cancled out]
=12.166/1.54
=7.9
