Answer:
3/x + 2/(x+1) = 3/5x
[3 · 5(x + 1) + 2 · 5x] / 5x(x + 1) = 3(x + 1) / 5x(x + 1)
3 · 5(x + 1) + 2 · 5x = 3(x + 1)
15x + 15 + 10x = 3x + 3
15x + 10x - 3x = -15 + 3
22x = -12
x = -12/22 = -6/11
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the mean number of coins for the girls is shown below:
Since there are 24 boys and 16 girls so the total children is 40
So the number of coins for all children is
= 40 × 11
= 440
And, the number of coins for all boys is
= 9 × 24
= 216
Now the mean is
= (440 - 216) ÷ 16 girls
= 14
Answer:
A negative number taken to an even power gives a positive result (because the pairs of negatives cancel), and a negative number taken to an odd power gives a negative result (because, after cancelling, there will be one minus sign left over).
