Answer:

The number is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have an unkown variable that is a number. We will call this number by "x", this is what we want to calculate. In the first part it is said that the number or x is added to the numerator and in the second part it is said that twice the number is added to the denominator, and that this fraction is equal to 1/3. So we have:

1/3 = (12 + x)/(43 + 2*x)

43 + 2*x = 3*(12 + x)

43 + 2*x = 36 + 3*x

43 - 36 = 3*x - 2*x

x = 7

The number is 7.

Answer: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be X

When number is added to the numerator of 12/43, the number is 12+X/43 and twice the number is added to the denominator of 12/43, this will give 12+X/43+2X, the resuliting fraction is equivalent to 1/3. Mathematically, this will be

12+X/43+2X = 1/3

Cross multiply

3(12+X) = 43+2X

36+3X= 43+2X

Collected like terms

3X-2X = 43-36

X= 7

The number is 7

Find the equation of the axis of symmetry of the following parabola algebraically.
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

the equation of the axis of symmetry is x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the equation of the axis of symmetry for a parabola with vertical branches like this one, is an equation of a vertical line that passes through the very vertex of the parabola and divides it into its two symmetric branches. Such vertical line would have therefore an expression of the form: x=constant, being that constant the very x-coordinate of the vertex.

So we use for that the fact that the x position of  the vertex of a parabola of the general form: y=ax^2+bx+c, is given by:

x_{vertex}=\frac{-b}{2\,a}

which in our case becomes:

x_{vertex}=\frac{-b}{2\,a} \\x_{vertex}=\frac{48}{2\,(3)} \\x_{vertex}=\frac{48}{6} \\x_{vertex}=8

Then, the equation of the axis of symmetry for this parabola is:

x=8

Can someone help me on this ? its Algebra 1 on exponents
Svetradugi [14.3K]
The volume of a rectangular prism is its length times width times height, or algebraically, V=lwh. You may be used to computing volume with numbers, but remember, a variable is a stand-in for a number. So you can solve this in the same way. Substitute l=x, w= \frac{x}{2},h= \frac{x}{3} into the formula for volume. You get (x)( \frac{x}{2})( \frac{x}{3} ), and you multiply these factors together. As you would with ordinary fractions, multiply the numerators and denominators across. You get \frac{(x)(x)(x)}{(1)(2)(3)} =  \frac{x^3}{6}. It seems that the book wants you to simplify by bringing the 6 up to the denominator. Recall the rule x^{-n}= \frac{1}{x^n}, if n is non-negative. The opposite applies so that \frac{1}{6} = 6^{-1}. For your final answer, you write 6^{-1}x^3. This corresponds to answer choice B.
