Put in terms of a
b=2a
a=a
c=a-15000
2a+a+a-15000=109000
2a+a+a=124000
4a=124000
a=31000
Candidate B received 62000 votes

What Is the answer to 1/6 + 2/3<br>​
arlik [135]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

When adding fractions, you must ensure the denominator is the same in both fractions.

In this case, the 3 can be multiplied by 2 to equal 6, the other denominator.

When multiplying fractions to create a common denominator, you must multiply the both the numerator and the denominator by the same value, to ensure that the fraction is still equivalent.

2/3 × 2/2 = (2×2)/(3×2) = 4/6

Replace 2/3 with its equivalent 4/6.

Now you will add the numerators together.

1/6 + 4/6 = (1+4)/6 = 5/6

Your final answer is 5/6

1) Solve for x.<br><br> x+23=−22<br><br><br><br> 2) Solve for a.<br><br> a+(−1.3)=−4.5
8090 [49]
X+23=-22
  -23   -23

x=-45

a+(-1.3)=-4.5
        
         or

a-1.3+-4.5
  +1.3  +1.3

a=3.2

Why is 2 the only even prime number
Temka [501]

Answer:

<em>A prime number is a whole number greater than 1 whose only factors are 1 and itself</em>

two is the only even prime number because it is divisible by only two and one. All the other even numbers are not prime because they are all divisible by two.
