One-half of a number is 1 more than one-third of the same number. What is the number?

Let the number be x,
(1/2)x=1+(1/3)x
Solving for x,
(1/2)x-(1/3)x=1+(1/3)x-(1/3)x
(1/2)x-(1/3)x=1
(1*3/6)x-(1*2/6)x=1
(3/6)x-(2/6)x=1
(1/6)x=1
6*(1/6)x=6*1
Therefore, x=6

(1/2)x = (1/3)x +1
-(1/3)x -(1/3)x

(1/6)x=1
*6 *6
x=6

And so x=6, or your number is 6

Answer:

Answer:

Explanation:

Let's look at the 3 sandwiches and 3 soups first and then expand the calculation. There are 9 ways I can have one of the sandwiches and 1 of the soups:

⎛

⎜

⎝

Soup 1

Soup 2

Soup 3

Sandwich 1

Sandwich 2

Sandwich 3

⎞

⎟

⎠

And so we can see that we multiply the number of sandwiches and the number of soups to get the total number of ways to get one of each.

The same works for more categories of choices, and so we multiply the 3 sandwiches, the 3 soups, 4 salads, and 2 drinks to get:

What is the total resistance of a parallel circuit that has two loads? Load one has a resistance of 10 ohms. Load two has a resi

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The total resistance is $7.0588\Omega$

Step-by-step explanation:

Attached please find the circuit diagram. The circuit is composed by a voltage source and two resistors connected in parallel: $R_1=10\Omega$ and $R_2=24\Omega$ .

First step: find the total current

For finding the current that the voltage source can provide, you must find the current consumed by each load and then add both. To do that, take first into account that the voltage is the same for both resistors ( $R_1$ and $R_2$ ).
