Answer:

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Perform the indicated multiplication:

Clear out the fractions. The LCD here is 12, so multiply both sides by 12, obtaining:

3(3x - 1) = 24x - 8, or

9x - 3 = 24x - 8

Combining like terms, we get 5 = 15x, so that x = 1/3.

What is the supplementary and complementary angles of 48 degrees?

Nostrana [21]

-- Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees.
48 + S = 180
S = 180 - 48 = 132 degrees

-- Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.
48 + C = 90
C = 90 - 48 = 42 degrees

What's 3 over 10 times 1over 6 ?

velikii [3]

$\frac{3}{10}$ × $\frac{1}{6}$
To multiply, you multiply across. So it would be 3×1=3 and 10×6=60
Which will result in $\frac{3}{60}$ but in order to simplify it, you find a common factor. The common factor is 3. 3÷3=1 and 60÷3=20
The answer is $\frac{1}{20}$
