Hey there, lets solve for each side!

2x\left(1\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)-y\right)=2\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{15}\right)

2x\left(1\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)-y\right) \; (a) = a\ \textgreater \  Remove\;parenthesis \ \textgreater \  2x\left(1\cdot \frac{1}{2}-y\right)

\mathrm{Multiply:}\:1\cdot \frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2} \ \textgreater \  2x\left(\frac{1}{2}-y\right)

\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses\:using}: \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac
Where\; a=2x,\:b=\frac{1}{2},\:c=-y
2x\cdot \frac{1}{2}+2x\left(-y\right)

\mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules} \ \textgreater \  +\left(-a\right)=-a \ \textgreater \  2x\frac{1}{2}-2xy

2x\frac{1}{2} \ \textgreater \  \mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}: \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c} \ \textgreater \  \frac{1\cdot \:2x}{2} \ \textgreater \  \mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:1\cdot \:a=a
\frac{2x}{2} \ \textgreater \  \mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:2 \ \textgreater \  x \ \textgreater \  x-2xy

Moving on
2\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{15}\right)

Remove parenthesis again
2\cdot \frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{15} \ \textgreater \  2\cdot \frac{1}{3} \ \textgreater \  \mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}: \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c} \ \textgreater \  \frac{1\cdot \:2}{3}
\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:1\cdot \:a=a \ \textgreater \  \frac{2}{3} \ \textgreater \  \frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{15}

Now we want to find the LCD for \frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{15}
\mathrm{Factor\:each\:denominator\:into\:its\:primes} \ \textgreater \  15=3\cdot \:5 \ \textgreater \  15

Now adjust the fractions based on the LCD
\frac{2\cdot \:5}{15}+\frac{1}{15}

Since the denominators are equal, you can combine the fractions
\frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c} \ \textgreater \  \frac{2\cdot \:5+1}{15}

Of course no simply multiply 2 by 5 then add 1
\frac{11}{15}

Combine the two again
x-2xy=\frac{11}{15}

Hope this helps!

. A garden measuring 12 m by 16 m is to have a pedestrian pathway that is ???????? meters wide installed all the way
Radda [10]

Answer:

1.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the pathway across all its side be x. This means we are adding a length of 2x to both the length and breadth to 12+2x and 16+2x respectively.

The new area thus becomes:

(12+2x)(16+2x) = 285

24x + 32x + 192 + 4x^2 = 285

4x^2 + 56x + 192 = 285

4x^2 + 56x + 192 - 285 =0

4x^2 + 56x -93 = 0

4x^2 + 62x - 6x - 93 = 0

2x( 2x + 31) - 3(2x + 31) = 0

(2x - 3)(2x + 31) = 0

This means x = 3/2 or -31/2

Since length cannot be negative , we choose the first and neglect the second meaning our answer is 3/2 which is 1.5 meters

Keenan places 3 green marbles, 4 yellow marbles and 1 blue marble in a bag.
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Stayed the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Altogether, there are 8 marbles in the bag (before Keenan adds the other marbles.) The probability so far that he draws a yellow marble is 4/8, or 1/2.

When he adds the marbles to the bag, there are 10 marbles altogether and 5 yellow marbles. The probability now is 5/10, or 1/2.

The probability has stayed the same.
