The answer would be s = 108/-5 and in decimal form -21.6.

s/4 - 4 - 2/3s = 5

s/4 - 4 - 2s/3 = 5

5s/-12 - 4 = 5

5s/-12 = 5 + 4

5s/-12 = 9

-5s = 9 * 12

-5s = 108

s = 108/-5.

First combine like terms
5+4= 9
1/4s-2/3s= -5/12s

-5/12s= 9
S= -21.6

Answer:

answer for 1

5 3/4 - 2 1/4 = 7

2

= 3 1

2

= 3.5

Spelled result in words is seven halfs (or three and one half).

How do you solve fractions step by step?

Conversion a mixed number 5 3

to a improper fraction: 5 3/4 = 5 3

4

= 5 · 4 + 3

4

= 20 + 3

4

= 23

To find new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 5 by the denominator 4. Whole number 5 equally 5 * 4

4

= 20

b) Add the answer from previous step 20 to the numerator 3. New numerator is 20 + 3 = 23

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 23) over the denominator 4.

Five and three quarters is twenty-three quarters

b) Add the answer from previous step 8 to the numerator 1. New numerator is 8 + 1 = 9

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 9) over the denominator 4.

Two and one quarter is nine quarters

Subtract: 23

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(4, 4) = 4. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 4 × 4 = 16. In the next intermediate step , cancel by a common factor of 2 gives 7

Two and one fifth is eleven fifths

Add: 23

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(3, 5) = 15. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 3 × 5 = 15. In the next intermediate step the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling.

Write an equation for the line perpendicular to y=1/3x-2 and passing through the point (3,3)
maria [59]

line given slope = x coefficient = 1/3

Perpendicular slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other:  m1 * m2 = –1

line slope (m) = -3

line equation formula = y = mx + b

y = -3x + b

from the point given

x = 3

y= 3

3 = -9 + b

b = 12

y = -3x + 12

What are the potential solutions of In(x^2-25)=0?
Maslowich

Answer:

x =\pm \sqrt{26}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • ln ( x² - 25 ) = 0

And we need to find the potential solutions of it. The given equation is the logarithm of x² - 25 to the base e . e is Euler's Number here. So it can be written as ,

<u>Equation</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

\implies log_e {(x^2-25)}= 0

<u>In </u><u>general</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • If we have a logarithmic equation as ,

\implies log_a b = c

Then this can be written as ,

\implies a^c = b

In a similar way we can write the given equation as ,

\implies e^0 = x^2 - 25

  • Now also we know that a^0 = 1 Therefore , the equation becomes ,

\implies 1 = x^2 - 25 \\\\\implies x^2 = 25 + 1 \\\\\implies x^2 = 26 \\\\\implies x =\sqrt{26} \\\\\implies x = \pm \sqrt{ 26}

<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>of </u><u>the</u><u> given</u><u> equation</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>±</u><u>√</u><u>2</u><u>6</u><u>.</u>

Bumek [7]
Let's say that Stan invested $1500 at 6%.  To find how much he invested at 4.5% would be 5000 - 1500 = $3500.  Now we have a pattern.  Now let's say stan invested x dollars. Even though it is unknown, we can set up how much is left.  So subtract x from 5000 or 5000 - x which is C
