to solve this:

1 / 2x + 2 / 3x = 28

Step 1: Simplify both sides:

1 / 2x + 2 / 3x = 28

( 1 / 2x + 2 / 3x ) = 28

Combine like terms:

7 / 6x = 28

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 6 / 7:

( 6 / 7 ) * ( 7 / 6x ) = ( 6 / 7 ) * ( 28 )

x = 24

Hence the answer is: 1 / 2x + 2 / 3x = 28 =====> x = 24

Hope that helps!!!!! : )

First you add any combine like term. than divide the exponent with the variable. x= will be your answer.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Option A:

Number of seats

Step-by-step explanation:

A discrete quantitative variable is a variable that can be enumerated. This means that they are in units in which numbers can be assigned to and can be counted.

The number of seats present in the car can be counted. This feature can also be evaluated based on its numeral value, rather than its quality. In a simple form, the buyers feel that the more the number of seats present in the car, the more people it can carry. Hence, the family would love to buy a car with a good number of seats in it.

The other features in the options are rather continuous, qualitative, or boolean. Some of them are continuous because they cannot be counted e.g fuel efficiency. The others such as the presence of a sunroof can be seen as a boolean variable. (it can either be true or false)

Type of the transmission is a qualitative variable

A tourist boat is used for sightseeing in a nearby river. The boat travels 2.4 miles downstream and in the same amount of time,

topjm [15]

Answer: the current of the river is 3 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the current of the river.

The boat travels 2.4 miles downstream. Assuming it travelled with the current of the river. If the boat travels at an average speed of 21 miles per hour in the still water, it means that the total speed at which the boat travelled downstream is

(21 + x) mph

Time = distance/speed

Time taken to travel downstream is

2.4/(21 + x)

it travels 1.8 miles upstream. Assuming it travelled against the current of the river. it means that the total speed at which the boat travelled upstream is

(21 - x) mph

Time taken to travel upstream is

1.8/(21 - x)

Since the time taken to travel upstream and downstream is the same, then

2.4/(21 + x) = 1.8/(21 - x)

Cross multiplying, it becomes

2.4(21 - x) = 1.8(21 + x)

50.4 - 2.4x = 37.8 + 1.8x

2.4x + 1.8x = 50.4 - 37.8

4.2x = 12.6

x = 12.6/4.2

x = 3 mph
