Solve for p: 3/8 +p/8= 3 1/8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ivenika [448]3 years ago
4 0
Solve for p:
p/8 + 3/8 = 25/8
p/8 + 3/8 = (p + 3)/8:
(p + 3)/8 = 25/8

Multiply both sides of (p + 3)/8 = 25/8 by 8:
(8 (p + 3))/8 = (8×25)/8
(8×25)/8 = (8×25)/8:
(8 (p + 3))/8 = (8×25)/8
(8 (p + 3))/8 = 8/8×(p + 3) = p + 3:p + 3 = (8×25)/8
(8×25)/8 = 8/8×25 = 25:
p + 3 = 25

Subtract 3 from both sides:
p + (3 - 3) = 25 - 3
3 - 3 = 0:
p = 25 - 3
25 - 3 = 22:
Answer: p = 22

2/x + 3/y = 13 ; 5/x - 4/y = -2​
Tomtit [17]

Given that

(2/x)+(3/y) = 13--------(1)

(5/x)-(4/y) = -2 -------(2)

Put 1/x = a and 1/y = b then

2a + 3b = 13 ----------(3)

On multiplying with 5 then

10a +15 b = 65 -------(4)

and

5a -4b= -2 ----------(5)

On multiplying with 2 then

10 a - 8b = -4 -------(6)

On Subtracting (6) from (4) then

10a + 15b = 65

10a - 8b = -4

(-)

_____________

0 + 23 b = 69

______________

⇛ 23b = 69

⇛ b = 69/23

⇛ b =3

On Substituting the value of b in (5)

5a -4b= -2

⇛ 5a -4(3) = -2

⇛ 5a -12 = -2

⇛ 5a = -2+12

⇛ 5a = 10

⇛ a = 10/5

⇛ a = 2

Now we have

a = 2

⇛1/x = 2

⇛ x = 1/2

and

b = 3

⇛1/y = 3

⇛ y = 1/3

<u>Answer :-</u>The solution for the given problem is (1/2,1/3)

<u>Check</u>: If x = 1/2 and y = 1/3 then

LHS = (2/x)+(3/y)

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

= (2×2)+(3×3)

= 4+9

= 13

= RHS

LHS=RHS is true

and

LHS=(5/x)-(4/y)

⇛ 5/(1/2)- 4/(1/3)

⇛(5×2)-(4×3)

⇛ 10-12

⇛ -2

⇛RHS

LHS = RHS is true
