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

Can I please get help with this I give thanks

First one :
We divide it into two rectangles (the top one has dimensions 2in*4in)

The area of the top rectangle is 2*4=8 in^2

The second rectangle has dimensions 3*(5-3)=6 in^2
Hence the total area is 8+6=14 square inches

Second one :

We divide it into a rectangle (dimensions 11*17) and a triangle on the top.

The area of the rectangle is 11*17=187 m^2
The rectangle has dimensions 17 (base's length) and 23-11 (height) hence its area is 17*(23-11)/2=102 m^2

Hence the total area is 102+187=289 square meters

Solve the system of linear equations below. <br><br> X+y=4<br> 2x+3y=0
deff fn [24]
X + y = 4...x = 4 - y

2x + 3y = 0
2(4-y) + 3y = 0
8 - 2y + 3y = 0
-2y + 3y = 0 - 8
y = -8

x + y = 4
x - 8 = 4
x = 4 + 8
x = 12

solution is : (12,-8)
