6-1/3x=-1 How do I do this

1 answer:

7 0

Im gonna assume you mean 6 - (1/3)x = -1. Your notation is not super clear. If so, solution is as follows:

6 - (1/3)x = -1 [subtract 6 from both sides]
-(1/3)x = -7 [multiply both sides by -3]
x = 21

2/0 = 32/48 = 30/0. What number shpuld come in place of the zeros?

Anton [14]

Answer:

$\sf \dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{32}{48} = \dfrac{30}{45}$

$\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{2}{x} = \dfrac{32}{48}$

$\sf \rightarrow 2(48)= {32x}$

$\sf \rightarrow 32x= 96$

$\sf \rightarrow x = 3$

<u /> $\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{32}{48} = \dfrac{30}{y}$

$\rightarrow \sf {32y} = 30(48)$

$\rightarrow \sf {32y} = 1440$

$\rightarrow \sf y = 45$
