Answer:

x = -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(x-4/3)=6

Divide by -3

-3/-3(x-4/3)=6/-3

(x-4/3)=-2

Add 4/3 to each side

x-4/3+4/3 = -2 +4/3

getting a common denominator

x = -6/3 +4/3

x = -2/3

Michele wanted to measure the height of her school’s flagpole. She placed a mirror on the ground 48 feet from the flagpole, then

yulyashka [42]

Height of the flagpole = x
distance from flagpole to the mirror = 48 ft
height of Michele = 5 ft
distance from Michele to the mirror = 12 ft

Now, set the proportion.

x/48 = 5/12
48 * x/48 = 5/12 * 48
x = 240/12
x = 20

So, the height of the flagpole is 20 ft.

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!

What is 1/8 divided by 2

slavikrds [6]

When dividing 1/8 by 2
we have to first take the reciprocal of 2
reciprocal is when the numerator and denominator are exchanged
2 when written as a fraction is $\frac{2}{1}$
we need to find the reciprocal of $\frac{2}{1}$ which is $\frac{1}{2}$
then
$\frac{1}{2} of \frac{1}{8}$
when 'of' function is used it means to multiply the 2 fractions
when multiplying fractions multiply the numerators by numerators and multiply denominators by denominators
is $\frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{8} = \frac{1}{16}$
answer is $\frac{1}{16}$
