Answer:
x = 1/3
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
4x + 1 = 3 - 2x
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Add 2x on both sides: 6x + 1 = 3
- Subtract 1 on both sides: 6x = 2
- Divide 6 on both sides: x = 1/3
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 4(1/3) + 1 = 3 - 2(1/3)
- Multiply: 4/3 + 1 = 3 - 2/3
- Add/Subtract: 7/3 = 7/3
Here we see that 7/3 does indeed equal 7/3.
∴ x = 1/3 is a solution of the equation.
Answer:
2. 4
Step-by-step explanation:
use the formula A=ab/2
a-leg 1
b-leg 2 (base)
since it is a right triangle the height would be 2 cm and the base would be the leg (4 cm)
plus into the equation- A= 2(4)/2
8/2=4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Make 6 1/2 an irrational fraction: 13/2 (I dunno know if its called that )
divide 16 by 2: 8
multiply that by 13: 104
Tell me if this helps or not bc I'm not really sure, but I really hope I helped!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- x + y + z = -3 --> (1)
- 3y - z = 4 --> (2)
- 2x - y - 2z = -5 --> (3)
<u>Add up (1) and (2)</u>
- x + 3y + y + z - z = -3 + 4 ⇒ x + 4y = 1 --> (4)
<u>Double (2) and subtract from (3)</u>
- 2x - y - 2z - 2(3y - z) = -5 - 2(4) ⇒ 2x - y - 2z - 6y + 2z = -5 - 8
- 2x - 7y = -13 --> (5)
<u>Double (4) and subtract (5)</u>
- 2(x + 4y) - 2x + 7y = 2 + 13 ⇒ 2x + 8y - 2x + 7y = 15 ⇒ 15y = 15 ⇒ y = 1
<u>Finding x</u>
- x + 4(1) = 1 ⇒ x = 1 - 4 ⇒ x = -3
<u>Finding z</u>
<u>So the answer is: </u>
