-27=x/2-19 solved for x

LekaFEV [45]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           x

Simplify   —

           2

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         x    

 -27 -  (— -  19)  = 0

         2    

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

2.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  2  as the denominator :

         19     19 • 2

   19 =  ——  =  ——————

         1        2  

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

x - (19 • 2)     x - 38

————————————  =  ——————

     2             2  

Equation at the end of step  2  :

        (x - 38)

 -27 -  ————————  = 0

           2    

Step  3  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

3.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  2  as the denominator :

           -27     -27 • 2

    -27 =  ———  =  ———————

            1         2  

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

3.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

-27 • 2 - ((x-38))     -x - 16

——————————————————  =  ———————

        2                 2  

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  -x - 16  =   -1 • (x + 16)

Equation at the end of step  4  :

 -x - 16

 ———————  = 0

    2  

Step  5  :

When a fraction equals zero :

5.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 -x-16

 ————— • 2 = 0 • 2

   2  

Now, on the left hand side, the  2  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  -x-16  = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

5.2      Solve  :    -x-16 = 0

Add  16  to both sides of the equation :

                     -x = 16

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  x = -16

One solution was found :

                  x = -16

Stella [2.4K]

Hello!

7d + 12 -4d -3\\

Explanation:

↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

First this problem it should be the group like terms.

7d-4d+12-3

Then you add similar elements.

7d-4d=3d

3d+12-3

You can also add or subtract by the numbers.

12-3=9

=3d+9

Answer⇒⇒⇒3d+9

Hope this helps!

An environmentalist wants to find out the fraction of oil tankers that have spills each month.Step 1 of 2:Suppose a sample of 47
torisob [31]

Answer: The proportion of oil tankers that had spills is \dfrac{156}{474} or 0.329.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of tankers is drawn = 474

Number of tankers did not have spills = 318

Number of tankers have spills = 474 - 318 = 156

Proportion of oil tankers that had spills is given by

\dfrac{Containing\ spill}{Total}=\dfrac{156}{474}=0.329

Hence, the proportion of oil tankers that had spills is \dfrac{156}{474} or 0.329.
