3/4= j-1/2
first to add 1/2 to both sides to solve for j
3/4 + 1/2= j
second you find a common denominator in order to add 3/4 and 1/2, the common denominator would be 4, you would have to change 3/4 at all because the denominator is already 4 but in order to make the denominator of 1/2, 4 you would have to multiply both the denominator and numerator by 2 so
3/4 + 2/4 = 5/4
so 5/4 =j
to check your answer you plug 5/4 in for j
3/4 = 5/4 -1/2
again you need to find a common denominator between 5/4 and 1/2 which again would be 4, and again you wouldn't change 5/4 but you would multiply both the numerator and the denominator of 1/2 so
3/4= 5/4-2/4
5-2= 3 and you would keep the 4 so
5/4 - 2/4 = 3/4
so j = 5/4
Divide 384 by 12 then multiply it by 5 to give you 160

Answer:
3 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent Alysha's time to drive home from the market.
Speed and time are inversely proportional to each other (for the same distance), so we have ...
(walking speed)(walking time) = (driving speed)(driving time)
5(x +21) = (8·5)(x)
x +21 = 8x . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
21 = 7x . . . . . . . . subtract x
3 = x . . . . . . .divide by 7
It takes Alysha 3 minutes to drive home from the market.
<span>(2 + 5i)(2 + i)
