Heyo!

Solve the equation

1/3(2x -4) + 5 = -2/3(x +1)

Distribute 1/3 through the parenthesis

2/3x -4/3 + 5 = -2/3(x +1)

Distribute -2/3 through the parenthesis

2/3x -4/3 + 5 = -2/3x - 2/3

Calculate the sum or difference

2/3x + 11/3 = -2/3x -2/3

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3

2x + 11 = -2x -2

Move variable to the left side and change its sign

2x + 2x + 11 = -2

Move constant to the right side and change its sign

2x + 2x = -2 -11

Collect the like terms

4x = -2 -11

Calculate the sum or difference

4x = -13

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

x = -13/4

Is 3/4 bigger than 11/16?
worty [1.4K]
Yes because if you simplify 11/16 you would not get 3/4. Or a bwtter way is if you times 4 by 4 to get 16 as a denominator, then multiply 3 by 4 it equals more than 11/16.

Line segment ABCD is split into unequal segments by points A, B, C, and D. The length of segment AD is 28 cm, and the distance b
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint segment has length ...

... L = AB/2 + BC + CD/2 = 16 cm

The entire segment has length ...

... AD = AB + BC + CD = 28 cm

If we subtract AD from 2L, we have ...

... 2L - AD - 2L = 2(AB/2 +BC + CD/2) - (AB +BC +CD) = 2(16 cm) -28 cm = 4 cm

... AB +2BC + CD -AB -BC -CD = 4 cm . . . . remove parentheses

... BC = 4 cm . . . . simplify
