Answer:
multiply
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
they would have traveled 124.1 meters. If you start at 0 elevation (ground level) and you go all the way down then the maximum lowest point he can get to is 124.1m.
1/3(12+x) = -8 (6-x)
Distribute the 1/3 and the -8 through their parentheses
4 + 1/3x = -48 + 8x
subtract 4 from each side
1/3x = -52 + 8x
subtract 8x from each side
1/3x - 8x = -52
combine like terms
1/3x - 24/3x = -52
-23/3x = -52
divide each side by -23/3 (multiply the reciprocal of the divisor)
x = -52 × -3/23
x = 156/23
x = 6 18/23 or 6.78
First convert the mixed numbers into fractions:
2 1/6 = 13/6
4 2/3 = 14/3
Now add the fractions:
13/6 + 14/3 = (13 + 14*2)/6 = (13+28)/6 = 41/6
Now convert it back to mixed number
41/6 = 6 5/6
thus 2 1/6 + 4 2/3 = 6 5/6
Hope it helps!
