Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 7/9x -4/9x

3/9x= 1/4 +5/12

first change 1/4 to 3/12

then add 3/12 + 5/12

3/9x = 8/12

change 3/9x to 1/3x then to 4/12x

4/12x = 8/12

then mulitiply by the reciprical 12/4 on both sides

x = 2

What is the solution to the equation −p − 13 = −4 /3 p + 2/3 ( 5p − 6 ) ?

jekas [21]

Answer:

The answer is p= 2 and 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

This answer can be found using the order of operations to solve for p.

Start by distributing 2/3 by (5p-6)

add -4/3p to 10/3p equaling 6/3p or 2p

subtract 13 from both sides

-p= 2p - 7

p=2 and 1/3

Value of (–3/8) × (+8/15). A. 11/15 B. 11/23 C. –1/5 D. –1/3

svet-max [94.6K]

ANSWER

The correct answer is C

EXPLANATION

We want to find the value of

$- \frac{3}{8} \times \frac{8}{15}$

This is the same as:

$- \frac{3}{8} \times \frac{8}{3 \times 5}$

We cancel out the common factors to get:

$- \frac{1}{1} \times \frac{1}{1 \times 5}$

We simplify to get:

$- \frac{1}{5}$

The correct answer is C
