27x + 9 
------------
     3

Break down the fraction. 3 is the common denominator, so it is the denominator of both numerators.

27x/3 + 9/3 = 0
9x + 3 = 0 
9x = -3
x = -3/9  simplified to x = -1/3

Or simply multiply the fraction with 3/1 to remove the denominator, which is 3.

27x + 9         3            27x + 9
-----------   x  -------  =   -----------------  or 27x + 9 = 0 ; look for x.
     3              1                 1

To check: Substitute x by its value: 
(27x + 9) / 3 = 0 ⇒ ((27 * -1/3) + 9) / 3 = 0 
⇒ (-9 + 9)/3 = 0 ⇒ 0/3 = 0 ⇒ 0 = 0

amid [387]
You can multiply the number of laps each person ran by the yards in each lap and then add them together:

440 + 2(440) + 3(440) + 4(440)
= 440 + 880 + 1,320 + 1,760
= 4,440 yards

Or you can add the laps first, then multiply by the yards in each lap
(1 + 2 + 3 + 4)(440)
= 10 x 440
= 4,400 yards

Rouns thia number to the nearest thousand 1,995,298
alexdok [17]

1,995,000

The number after the thousands place is 2, which is less than 5 so the thousands place is rounded to 5,000 instead of 6,000.

Fred and Frank play a game. Fred picks an even number X and asks Frank to add all even numbers between 0 and X (inclusive) as fa
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The even numbers between 0 and X represents an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 2

The rule of arithmetic sequence = a + d(n - 1)

Where a is the first term and n is the number of terms

So, for the even numbers between 0 and X

The first term = a = 0

d = 2

So, we need to find n at the last term which is X

∴ X = 0 + 2 ( n -1 )

∴ n - 1 = X/2

∴ n = X/2 + 1

The sum of the arithmetic sequence = (n/2) × (2a + (n−1)d)

Substitute with a and d and X

So, the sum = (n/2) * (2*0 + (n−1)*2)

                   = (n/2) * ((n−1)*2)

                   = n(n-1)

                   = (X/2 + 1) * (X/2)

                   = X/2 by (X/2 + 1)

So, The quick way to add all even numbers between 0 and X always works.
