Answer:
The answer in meters is 6.3 meters
Answer:A rational number is such that when you multiply it by 5/2 and add 2/3 to the product you get -7/12 . What is the number.
Step-by-step explanation:Let p/q (q ≠ 0) denote the rational number. Multiplying it by 5/2 gives (p/q)(5/2). Add 2/3 to the product and we get (p/q)(5/2) + 2/3 . The result is given to be -7/12.
∴ (p/q)(5/2) + 2/3 = -7/12 …………………………..……………………………………..(1)
Transposing 2/3 to right-hand-side and changing the sign to negative,
(p/q)(5/2) = -2/3 -7/12 = -(2/3 + 7/12) =- (2 x 4 + 7)/12 (Taking L.C.M.)
Or, (p/q)(5/2) = -(8+7)/12 = - 15/12
Multiplying both sides by 2/5,
(p/q)(5/2) x (2/5) = -15/12 . 2/5 = -(3x5)/(3x4) . 2/5 =- 5/4 .2/5
Since 2/5 is the multiplicative inverse of 5/2, 5/2 x 2/5 = 1 and we obtain
(p/q).1 = -1/4 . 2/1 = -1/2
⇒ p/q = -1/2 which is a negative rational number in which p = 1 and q = 2 ≠ 0 .
∴ the rational number = -1/2
Answer:
-8.8
Step-by-step explanation:
We begin by simplifying the parenthesis through multiplication. Parenthesis is a structure which signals multiplication happening.
We now begin combining like terms across the equal sign by performing the inverse or doing the opposite. Move first the 8.11 by subtracting it from both sides.
Now, move 4.3v across by subtracting it from both sides.
Finally, we divide both sides by the coefficient of v.
