Given equation :−1/2 (x+2) + 112x = 3

We have -1/2 in front of parenthesis on left side .

It's better to remove fraction in an equation, in order make it easier to solve.

In order to remove 2 from denominator of 2, we need to multiply each and every term by 2.

Multiplying each term in the equation by 2, we get

2* −1/2(x+2) +2* 112x = 2*3.

On simplifying this step, we get

-1(x+2) +224x = 6.

Distributing -1 over (x+2), we get

-x -2 +224x = 6

Combining like terms on left side, -x+224x=223x

223x -2 = 6

Adding 2 on both sides, we get

223x -2+2 = 6+2

223x = 8

Dividing both sides by 223, we get

223x/223 = 8/223.

x= 8/223.

<h3>Answer: Choice D) 3n^2</h3>

"mono" means "one". I often think of "monorail" which means "one rail" to help remember this. So "monomial" means "one term". This reduces our choices to either C or D, as they show one term each. Choices A and B are ruled out as these are binomials, showing two terms each.

Choice C shows a cubic monomial since the exponent here is 3. So the degree is 3. We can rule out choice C.

Choice D has a 2nd degree monomial because the exponent is 2. The leading coefficient is 3 as this is the number to the left of the variable term. All of choice D fits with the description of "A monomial of the 2nd degree with leading coefficient of 3"

$\bf \textit{area of a rectangle}\\\\
A=l\cdot w\qquad 
\begin{cases}
l=length\\
w=width\\
-----\\
l=5t+6\\
w=t^6
\end{cases}\implies A(t)=(5t+6)t^6
\\\\\\
A(t)=5t^7+6t^6\implies \cfrac{dA}{dt}=35t^6+36t^5$

A chain has a ribbon tied to it every 2/3 foot. If the chain is 10 2/3 feet long, how many ribbons are tied to the chain??

patriot [66]

Answer:

16 ribbons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the length of the chain as 10 $\frac{2}{3}$ and there is a ribbon tied to it every $\frac{2}{3}$ , we can take the total length of the chain and divide by the measure of $\frac{2}{3}$ :

$10\frac{2}{3}=\frac{32}{3}$

$\frac{\frac{32}{3}}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{32}{3}*\frac{3}{2}=\frac{96}{6}=16$

When dividing with fractions, we use the rule of 'keep/change/flip' to keep the first fractions, change the operation to multiplication and flip the second fraction.
