-27=x/2-19 solved for x

Mathematics
1 answer:
LekaFEV [45]3 years ago
3 0

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

A runner ran 20 miles in 150 minutes. If she runs at that speed, how long would it take her to run 6 miles? How fast is she runn
Nataly_w [17]
First you do 150 divided by 20, which equals 7.5, so then you would do 7.5 times 6 and that equals 45 minutes. Hope that helped!

Latrell took one of his friends out to lunch. The lunches cost $60 and he paid 5% sales tax. If Latrell left a 15% tip on the $6
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

$72

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the lunch = $60

Sales tax = 5% of $60

= 5/100 × 60

= 0.05 × 60

= $3

Tip = 15% of $60

= 15/100 × 60

= 0.15 × 60

= $9

how much in total did he pay?

Total amount paid = cost of the lunch + sales tax + tip

= $60 + $3 + $9

= $72

Latrell paid $72 in total for the lunch
