Are the equations sometimes, always, or never true?

1 answer:

4 0

15 + 2x - 4 = 9x + 11 - 7x
2x + 11 = 2x + 11
always true

2x + 3(4x - 1) = 2(5x + 3) + 4x
2x + 12x - 3 = 10x + 6 + 4x
14x - 3 = 14x + 6
never true

How to do the problem

marta [7]

There are 153 people who each ate 1/4 pounds. Therefore, the amount of watermelon eaten is 153/4 pounds.
The amount of watermelon served is
$8 \frac{1}{4} + 9 \frac{1}{4} + 8 \frac{7}{8} + 9 \frac{5}{8} + 10 \frac{3}{4}$
$= \frac{8 \times 4 + 1}{4} + \frac{9 \times 4 + 1}{4} \\ + \frac{8 \times 8 + 7}{8} + \frac{9 \times 8 + 5}{8} \\ + \frac{10 \times 4 + 3}{4}$
$= \frac{33}{4} + \frac{37}{4} + \frac{71}{8} + \frac{77}{8} + \frac{43}{4} \\ = \frac{33 \times 2}{4 \times 2} + \frac{37 \times 2}{4 \times 2} + \frac{71}{8} \\ + \frac{77}{8} + \frac{43 \times 2}{4 \times 2}$
$= \frac{66 + 74 + 71 + 77 + 86}{8}$
$= \frac{374}{8} = \frac{186}{4}$
There is 186/4 total watermelon. Minus the 153/4 that was eaten,
$\frac{186 - 153}{4} = \frac{33}{4} = 8 \frac{1}{4}$

The leftover watermelon is 8 & 1/4 pounds.

Liam says - (5/12) is equivalent to 5/-12. Explain if Liam is correct by completing the statements below.

makkiz [27]

A positive number divided by a positive number results in a negative quotient, and it's opposite is always positive. The fraction 5/-12 can be described as a positive number divided by a negative number, which always results in a negative quotient. The fractions have different value, so Liam is not correct.
