Answer:

x = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Expand.

3x+2x-2=9x+4

2) Simplify 3x+2x-2 to 5x-2.

5x-2=9x+4

3) Subtract 5x from both sides.

-2=9x+4-5x

4) Simplify 9x+4-5x to 4x+4.

-2=4x+4

5) Subtract 4 from both sides.

-2-4=4x

6) Simplify - 2 - 4 to -6.

-6=4x

7) Divide both sides by 4.

-6/4 = x

8) Simplify 6/4 to 3/2.

-3/2 = x

9) Switch sides.

x = -3/2

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

  2 13/14 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The remaining length is the difference between the starting length and the amount cut off:

  5 3/7 - 2 1/2 = (5 -2) +(3/7 -1/2) = 3 +((3·2-7·1)/(7·2)) = 3 -1/14

  = 2 13/14 . . . feet remaining

<em>Additional comment</em>

Addition and subtraction of fractions can be accomplished using a formula that does not rely on finding a least common denominator. In this case, the denominators have no common factors, so their product is, in fact, the least common denominator.

  \dfrac{a}{b}-\dfrac{c}{d}=\dfrac{ad-bc}{bd}

Find a vector of magnitude 3 in the direction of v = 10i - 24k. The vector is Oi-Oj+k (Simplify your answer. Use integers or fra
Soloha48 [4]

Given :

A vector v = 10i - 24k.

To Find :

A vector of magnitude 3 in the direction of v = 10i - 24k.

Solution :

Unit vector in the direction  of vector v is :

\^{v}=\dfrac{v}{|v|}\\\\\^{v}=\dfrac{10i-24k}{\sqrt{10^2+24^2}}\\\\\^{v}=\dfrac{10i-24k}{26}

Now , vector of magnitude 3 in direction v is :

r=3 \^{v}\\\\r=3\times \dfrac{ (10i-24k)}{26}\\\\r=\dfrac{3}{13} (5i-12k)

Hence , this is the required solution .
