Solve for x. 3x+1/14=2x/8

Mathematics

Ludmilka [50]2 years ago

It depends if it is
1. 3x+(1/14)=(2x)/8 or
2. (3x+1)/14=(2x)/8

if it is 1

1.
3x+(1/14)=2x/8
simplify 2x/8
2x/8=x/4
3x+(1/14)=x/4
find least common multiple of 14 and 4
factors of 14=2 and 7
factors of 4 are 2 and 2 so LCM=2 times 2 times 7=28
multiply both sides by 28
84x+2=7x
subtract 7x from both sides
77x+2=0
subtract 2 from both sides
77x=-2
divide both sides by 77
x=-2/77


2.
(3x+1)/14=2x/8
simpify 2x/8
2x/8=x/4
(3x+1)/14=x/4
find least common multiple of 14 and 4
factors of 14=2 and 7
factors of 4 are 2 and 2 so LCM=2 times 2 times 7=28
multiply both sides by 28
(2)(3x+1)=7x
distribute
6x+2=7x
subtract 6x from both sides
2=x

Find positive integers that satisfy
tankabanditka [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y, z) = (1, 2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations that result from reduction to row-echelon form are ...

  x = 0.4 +0.2t

  y = 5.6 -1.2t

  z = t

Then t must have a value 5n+3 for 0 ≤ n < 1. That is, t=3.

  x = 0.4 +0.2(3) = 1

  y = 5.6 -1.2(3) = 2

  z = 3

The integers that satisfy are (x, y, z) = (1, 2, 3).

a rental car agency charges 190 per a week plus .25 per mile to rent a car. How many miles can you travel in one week for 370
alekssr [168]

Let m represent the number of miles traveled. If the whole budget amount of 370 is spent, then ...

... 190 + 0.25m = 370

... 0.25m = 280

... m = 280/0.25 = 1120

For 370, you can travel 1120 miles.
