Okay. The question is m/9 - 17 = 21. First off, we will add 17 to both sides. -17 + 17 cancels out. 21 + 17 is 38. That leaves m/9 = 38. Multiply each side by 9 to isolate the m, because m is the numerator and 9 is the denominator. m/9 * 9/1 cancels out. 38 * 9 is 342. Let's check this. 342/9 is 38. 38 - 17 is 21. 21 = 21. There. x = 342.
Answer:
Hello there!
Since he had 6 candies and lost two, all you have to do is subtract 2 from 6.
Therefore, Jerry only has 4 candies.
Hope this helps!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4)+6
8+6
=14
you’re welcome :)
I.) (5x+3)/4-(2x-4)/3=5
Clear fractions:
3·((5x+3)/4)=15x+9
4·((2x-4)/3)=8x-16
15x+9-(8x-16)=5
15x+9-8x+16=5
Combine like terms:
7x+25=5
7x=-20
x=-20/7
II.) (3/11)·(5/6)-(9/12)·(4/3)+(5/13)·(6/15)
Remember PEMDAS
So first multiply:
3/11·5/6=15/66
9/12·4/3=3/3·1/1=3/3=1
5/13·6/15=1/13·6/3=6/39=2/13
(15/66)-1+(2/13)
Combine:
15/66-1/1=15/66-66/66=-51/66
-51/66+2/3=-51/66+44/66=-7/66
Answer: -7/66 :)
