solve for "a", to get the coefficient, and then plug it back in the equation.
Answer:
Solution
squared
−
2
5
Step-by-step explanation:
K/5 + 3 - 3k = -6k
Steps
Subtract 3 from both sides
k/5 + 3 - 3k - 3 = -6k - 3
Then simplify,
k/5 - 3k = -6k - 3
Add 6k to both sides
k/5 - 3k + 6k = -6k - 3 + 6k
Simplify,
k/5 + 3k = -3
Next, multiply both sides by 5
k/5 * 5 + 3k * 5 = -3 * 5
So,
k + 15k = -15
16k = -15
Then, divide both sides by 16
16k/16 = -15/16
Simplify,
k = -15/16
Answer:
9 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Given that:
On map:
5cm = 2 miles
If a map trail = 22.5cm
Length of trail in real life :
(22.5 cm / 5cm) * 2miles
4.5 * 2 miles = 9 miles
The trail is 9 miles in real life
Answer:
y = 3 1/13
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 3 and combine like terms:
... (2 3/5)y = 8
Multiply by the reciprocal of the coefficient of y.
... y = 8 · (5/13) = 40/13
... y = 3 1/13
_____
<em>Check</em>
(3/5)(3 1/13) - 3 + 2(3 1/13) = 5
(3/5)(40/13) - 39/13 + 2(40/13) = 5 . . . . express everything with 13 as a denominator
24/13 - 39/13 + 80/13 = 5 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
(24 -39 +80)/13 = 5 . . . . . . . . . . add the fractions
65/13 = 5
5 = 5 . . . . . the answer checks
