Okay so the problem starts you off with the fraction (1/4). Sharing equally among 3 people would mean that you'd want to divide it by three so your equation would initially look like (1/4) / 3. Having two dividing signs is confusing so what you do is change the dividing into multiplying by the reciprocal of 3 = 1/3... This would make your expression (1/4) * (1/3) and when you simplify this you should get 1/12 as the answer.
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
EG = 59
EF = 8x - 14
FG = 4x + 1
to find the value of x
EF + FG = EG (same line)
8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59
12x -13 = 59
12x = 59 + 13
12x = 72
x = 72 ÷ 12
x = 6
You can even cross check for correct answer
EF + FG = EG
instead of x place the x's value we got
8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59
8 (6) - 14 + 4 (6) + 1 = 59
48 - 14 + 24 + 1 = 59
34 + 25 = 59
59 = 59

Answer:
Option B. 
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
Solve for w
That means ----> isolate the variable w
Multiply by 5 both sides to remove the fraction
subtract 8 both sides

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:e equation has a leading coefficient of 1 or if the equation is a difference of squares. The zero-factor property is then used to find solutions. ... Another method for solving quadratics is the square root property. The variable is squared.
