nadya68 [22]
Hey there!

The easiest way I could think to do this is by converting your mixed number to an improper fraction and multiplying the fraction by 2, or 2 over 1. 

6 \frac{2}{3}  = 6*3+2 =  \frac{20}{3}

\frac{20}{3} *  \frac{2}{1}

To multiply fractions, you can just multiply the numerators and denominators and simplify, if applicable. 

\frac{20}{3} * \frac{2}{1} = \frac{40}{3}

Since you can't simplify this fraction in its improper form, just convert it back into a mixed number. 

\frac{40}{3} = 13 \frac{1}{3}

So, your answer will be 13 \frac{1}{3}. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

How do I do this math problem can you please help me solve it
Gnom [1K]
First, multiply 1/2 and 2 by 6 to simplify the equation. Then, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation to get x alone. Finally divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get x on it's own. That is your solution. X=-2/3 I attached a picture of my work. Hope this helped!

Match each term with the appropriate example
brilliants [131]

Answer:

1.   Absolute value :  d.  | - 7| = 7

2.  All real numbers :  b.  3x = 3x

3.  x = -5  : c.  5x = -25

4.  No solution : a.  |2x| = -10

5.  Adding the opposite to both sides of the equation. : e.  Canceling

Step-by-step explanation:

1.   Absolute value :  d.  | - 7| = 7

The absolute value is considered the distance to 0... so if there's a negative sign in the value, the negative sign disappears.

2.  All real numbers :  b.  3x = 3x

If we divide both sides by 3, we have x = x, which will always be true.

3.  x = -5  : c.  5x = -25

If we multiply each side by 5, we have 5(x) = 5(-5) thus 5x = -25

4.  No solution : a.  |2x| = -10

The result of an absolute value cannot be a negative number.  So, that has no solution since there's no value of x that would make this true.

5.  Adding the opposite to both sides of the equation. : e.  Canceling

If you have for example (x = -5) and you add 5 on both sides, you cancel the value on the right side... (becomes x + 5 = 0).

10 - 3(3x - 40) = -9x A)x = -9 B)no solution C)x = 10 D)all real numbers
Fantom [35]
Remove the brackets on the left
10 - 9x + 120 = - 9x You get a bizarre result no matter what you try to do to resolve this. If you say any number will do pick, a number at random for x. Say 10

10 - 90 + 120 = -90 Is this statement true? No. You only need 1 exception but 0 is a popular number to look for answers. Will it work?
10 - 0 + 120 = 0 That doesn't work either.

There is no number you could pick that that would give you anything but 10 + 120 = 0
