1/2x + 1/4x = 16

3/4x = 16

Answer:

The value of the equation for x is x=\frac{64}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}=16

We need to solve the equation for x.

Add the like terms as shown:

\frac{2x+x}{4}=16

\frac{3x}{4}=16

Multiply both the sides by 4/3.

\frac{3x}{4}\times \frac{4}{3}=16\times \frac{4}{3}

x=\frac{64}{3}

Hence, the value of the equation for x is x=\frac{64}{3}.

frez [133]
Given:
15% of its height each day
27 inches on day 10.

How tall was it yesterday?

27 represents 115% of the height yesterday. So we divided 27 by 115% to get yesterdays height.

27 ÷ 115% = 23.48 inches.

The plant was 23.48 inches tall yesterday.

To check:
23.48 x 15% = 3.52 inches
23.48 + 3.52 = 27 inches

a bag contains 56 marbles. each marble is either red, green, or yellow. a marble is randomly removed from the bag and then retur
zhenek [66]

The first time I solved this problem, I did it in a way that I had to
mess with changing fractions to common denominators and all that. 
Suddenly, however, the clean and easy way to do it dawned on me. 
Here it is:

-- There are 56 marble in the bag.

-- The probability of pulling a red marble is 5/8, so
5/8 of the 56 marbles must be red.
5/8 of 56 = 35 red marbles.

-- The probability of pulling a green marble is 1/7,
so 1/7 of the 56 marbles must be green.
1/7 of 56 = 8 green marbles.

-- The red and green marbles make up (35 + 8) = 43
of the 56 marbles in the bag.

-- The rest of them are yellow.
   There are  (56 - 43) = 13 yellow marbles in the bag.

-- The probability of pulling a yellow marble is  13/56 .    (about 23.2%)

No messy fractions at all !
That's the way I like it !
