Answer:

r = -29/20 or r = -1.45

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe you are saying that the equation is -2 1/4 = r - 4/5. If so, then I would solve it in this way:

-2 1/4 = r - 4/5

-9/4 = r - 4/5

-9/4 (20) = r (20) - 4/5 (20)

-45 = 20r - 16

20r = -29

r = -29/20

r = -1.45

Check:

-2 1/4 = r - 4/5

-9/4 = r - 4/5

-2.25 = r - 0.8

-2.25 = -1.45 - 0.8

-2.25 = -2.25

-9/4 = -9/4

Find the vector reciprocal to set. a= i+2j+2k, b= 2i+3j+k, c= i-j-2k

inn [45]

Answer:

I just do a' as a sample. You calculate b' and c'

Step-by-step explanation:

$a'=\frac{b\times c}{a\bullet (b\times c)}, b' = \frac{c\times a}{a\bullet (b\times c)}, c' = \frac{a\times b}{a\bullet (b\times c)}$

Now, calculate b x c

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\2&3&1\\1&-1&-2\end{array}\right] =$

$a'=\frac{}{\bullet }=\frac{}{-5} =$

Solve for j.<br>-13j - 20 = -8j + 20

aleksley [76]

Answer:

j = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

-13j - 20 = -8j + 20

Add 13 j to each side

-13j+13j - 20 = -8j+13j + 20

-20 = 5j+20

subtract 20 from each side

-20-20 = 5j +20-20

-40 = 5j

Divide by 5

-40/5 = =5j/5

-8 =j

(x+13)+( 4x+2 ) =180

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

x=33

Step-by-step explanation:

x+13+4x+2=180

4x+x=5x

13 plus 2 =15

5x+15=180

subtract 15 from both sides

180-15=165

5x=165

divide 5 from both sides

x=33
