Solve the equation 3x-1/2y=2

Mathematics
1 answer:
poizon [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Without a second equation relating x and y, we can solve 3x - 1/2y = 2 ONLY for x in terms of y or for y in terms of x:

x in terms of y:    Multiply all three terms of 3x - 1/2y = 2 by 2, to eliminate the fraction:  6x - y = 4.  Now add y to both sides to isolate 6x:  6x = 4 + y.

Last, divide both sides by 6 to isolate x:

x = (4 + y)/6

y in terms of x:    

y = 6x - 4

If you want a numerical solution, please provide another equation in x and y and solve the resulting system.

One fourth of a box of cereal was shared equally among 3 people. How much cereal did each person get?
just olya [345]
Okay so the problem starts you off with the fraction (1/4). Sharing equally among 3 people would mean that you'd want to divide it by three so your equation would initially look like (1/4) / 3. Having two dividing signs is confusing so what you do is change the dividing into multiplying by the reciprocal of 3 = 1/3... This would make your expression (1/4) * (1/3) and when you simplify this you should get 1/12 as the answer.
