Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers are 6 and 2x, then:

  • 1/6 + 1/(2x) = 7/24
  • 1/3 + 1/x = 7/12
  • (x+3)/(3x) = 7/12
  • 12(x+3) = 7*3x
  • 12x + 36 = 21x
  • 21x - 12x = 36
  • 9x = 36
  • x = 4

The other number is 2*4 = 8

ANSWER

Step 3

EXPLANATION

The given polynomial expression is:

2 {p}^{2}  - 3p - 7 - (3 {p}^{2}  + p - 5)

Fatau correctly expanded the parenthesis in the first step.

2 {p}^{2}  - 3p - 7 - 3 {p}^{2}   -  p  +  5

Fatau also correctly grouped the like terms to obtain:

(2- 3) {p}^{2}   + (- 3 - 1)p  + (- 7 +  5)

Fatau committed a mistake at the third step.

Instead of obtaining,

- {p}^{2} - 4p   - 2

He mistakenly got:

{p}^{2}    - 2p  +2

A store is selling lemons at 2 for $3. Each lemon yields 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. How much will it cost to buy enough lemon
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

It will cost $6 to buy enough lemons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

To make a 9-inch lemon pie requiring 1/2 cup of lemon juice.

1 cup = 16 tablespoons

1/2 cup = 8 tablespoons

That means we only need 8 tablespoons.

Each lemon yields 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.

Number of lemon required = 8 ÷ 2 = 4

That means we need only 4 lemon.

Store is selling lemons at 2 for $3 that means 4 lemons for $6.

Hence, it will cost $6 to buy enough lemons.

If six more than the product of a number and -2 is greater than 10, which of the following could be that number
laiz [17]
To get that number in the problem, you need to translate first the word problem into mathematical expression.

We will let x as the number.
six more than the product of a number and -2 is greater than 10 can be written as  (-2x) + 6 > 10
We will now solve for x to get the number.
         (-2x) + 6 > 10
Add -6 to both sides of the equation
      -2x + 6 - 6 > 10 - 6
                  -2x > 4
Divide both sides of the equation with -2
Take note that if we divide a negative number in inequality, the inequality symbol will be change from greater than to less or from less than to greater than.
             -2x / -2< 4 / -2
                     x < -2

Therefore, the number that we are looking for is less than -2.
