1/2(2+a)=3a+4/3 solve it

1 answer:

4 0

1/2(2+a)=3a+4/3

first, you use the distributive property

then your problem changes to...

1 + 1/2a = 3a + 4/3

then you subtract 1/2a with 3a

1 = 2 1/2a +4/3

now you subtract 1 with 4/3

-1/3 = 2 1/2a

now you divide -1/3 with 2 1/2a

-2/15 = a

A = -2/15 is your answer. Hope this helps :)

A local concert promoter purchases 2 3/4 pages of ads. When one of the concerts is cancelled, the promoter cancels 1 5/8 pages o

Lynna [10]

Answer:

1 $\frac{1}{8}$ pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the concert promoter started with 2 $\frac{3}{4}$ pages of ads but had to cancel 1 $\frac{5}{8}$ , subtracting the cancelled amount from the original amount will give the amount of advertising space the promoter is now actually using:

2 $\frac{3}{4}$ = 2 $\frac{6}{8}$

- 1 $\frac{5}{8}$ - 1 $\frac{5}{8}$

1 $\frac{1}{8}$ pages

In order to subtract fractions, you need to have like denominators, so you need to convert $\frac{3}{4}$ into an equivalent fraction with a denominator of '8'. Since 4 x 2 = 8, then you also need to multiply the numerator by the same factor: 3 x 2 = 6.

Given the following geometric sequence, find the common ratio: {16, 64, 256, ...}.

Anettt [7]

Answer:

The common ratio is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to divide a term by the previous term to find the common ratio in a geometric sequence:

64 ÷ 16 = 4

256 ÷ 64 = 4

By doing it twice we can confirm that the common ratio is 4
