Answer:

p = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, simply take the words of the problem and convert them into an equation as such:

The difference of p and one-sixth implies --> p - 1/6

is two-thirds implies --> 2/3

So, our equation:

p - 1/6 = 2/3

Now simply solve for p, and combine the fractions.

p - 1/6 = 2/3

p - 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/3 + 1/6

p = 2/3 + 1/6

p = 4/6 + 1/6

p = 5/6

Cheers.

Which of the following expressions is equal to 3x^2 + 27
Kisachek [45]
Factor: 
3x^2 + 27
= 3(x^2  + 9)
Answer is 3(x^2 + 9), when factored.


A) (3x + 9i)(x + 3i)
= (3x + 9i)(x + 3i)
= (3x)(x) + (3x)(3i) + (9i)(x) + (9i)(3i)
= 3x^2 + 9ix + 9ix + 27i^2
= 27i^2 + 18ix + 3x^2



B) (3x - 9i)(x + 3i)
= (3x +  - 9i)(x + 3i)
= (3x)(x) + (3x)(3i) + ( - 9i)(x) + (- 9i)(3i)
= 3x^2 + 9ix - 9ix - 27i^2
= 27i^2 + 3x^2


C) (3x - 6i)(x + 21i)
= (3x +  - 6i)(x + 21i)
= (3x)(x) + (3x)(21i) + (- 6i)(x) + ( -6i)(21i)
= 3x^2 + 63ix - 6ix - 126i^2
=  - 126i^2 + 57ix + 3x^2






D) (3x - 9i)(x - 3i)
=  (3x +   - 9)(x +  - 3)
= (3x)(x) + (3x)( - 3i) + (- 9)(x) + ( - 9)( - 3i)
= 3x^2 - 9ix - 9x + 27i
= 9ix + 3x^2 + 27i - 9x









Hope that helps!!!

4(1 - x) + 3x = - 2(x + 1)
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

X=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

4(1−x)+3x=−2(x+1)

(4)(1)+(4)(−x)+3x=(−2)(x)+(−2)(1)(Distribute)

4+−4x+3x=−2x+−2

(−4x+3x)+(4)=−2x−2(Combine Like Terms)

−x+4=−2x−2

−x+4=−2x−2

Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.

−x+4+2x=−2x−2+2x

x+4=−2

Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.

x+4−4=−2−4

x=−6

Answer:

x=−6
