Answer:

One solution x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

\dfrac{1}{2}(x+12)=4x-1

Multiply this equation by 2:

2\cdot \dfrac{1}{2}(x+12)=2\cdot (4x-1)\\ \\x+12=2(4x-1)

Use distributive property:

x+12=8x-2

Combine the like terms:

x+12=8x-2\\ \\x+12-12=8x-2-12\\ \\x=8x-14\\ \\x-8x=8x-14-8x\\ \\-7x=-14\\ \\7x=14\\ \\x=2

Thus, this equation has one solution x = 2

Jamie has 8/10 of a candy bar leftover. He wants to split it into 1/3. How many 1/3 pieces can he make
anyanavicka [17]
He can make 3 pieces. Since he has 8/10 of a candy bar, it is then simplified to 4/5 of a candy bar. You need to find 1/3 of that, that is 4/15. Then how many times does 4/15 fit into 4/5, well simply do this: (4/15)x=4/5. Solving for x should give you 3.

I need help with these two questions can some explain it to me how to do these two question
GrogVix [38]

the numbers inside the () are first number is x second number is y so it is (x,y)

so for y<x the second number needs to be smaller than the first number

 so right away (3,3) is not the answer

 and then y also has to be greater then 2x-3

 so replace x with the fist numbers and see what you get.

(2x2)-3 = 4-3 = -1 since -1 is not greater than -1 the second answer (2,-1) is not right

 3rd one (-1,-2) 2(-1)-3 = -2-3=-5

so -2 is greater than -5 and -2 is less than -1 so the 3rd one is the answer
