Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

use distribution

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

simplify

3x + 3 = -2x - 2

combine like terms

3x + 3 = -2x - 2

-3x                -3x

3 = -5x - 2

+2         +2

5 = -5x

/-5     /-5

-1 = x

suppose for everyone cup of rice I add 2 3/4 cups of water. If I add 2 1/2 cups of rice, how much cups of water do I add?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

6 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1 cup of rice is added to 2 3/4 water

We are to determine the Amount of water to be to 2 1/2 cups of rice

Let the unknown number for water be x

So let's solve

1 cup of rice=11/4 water

5/2 cup of rice=x water

Cross multiply

x=5/2×11/4

x=55/8

X=6 7/8

Therefore,6 7/8 water is needed

What is the formula for finding the perimeter of a quads?
VLD [36.1K]

The formula for finding the perimeter of a quadrilateral is  Length + Length + Width + Width.

<h3>What is Perimeter?</h3>
  • A perimeter is the path that surrounds a certain shape. To calculate the path that surrounds a quadrilateral, we need to get the sum of its four sides, both lengths and widths, lengths being the longest sides and the widths being the shortest.
  • The formula used for calculating perimeter is Perimeter = Length + Length + Width + Width.
  • For instance, to calculate the perimeter of a parallelogram with a side of 5 cm and one of 3 cm, we insert the numbers in their corresponding spot in the formula as such: Perimeter=5+5+3+3=16 cm or since parallelograms have 2 sets of 2 equal sides, we can use this formula Perimeter=(5×2)+(3×2)=10+6=16 cm.
  • For a square on the other hand, we only need to know the length of one side because it has 4 equal sides.

Therefore, the formula for finding the perimeter of a quadrilateral is  Length + Length + Width + Width.

Sedaia [141]
7/8+(−2/3) divided by 5/6

(7/8 - 2/3)/(5/6)
=(21/24 - 16/24) / (5/6)
= (5/24)  /  (5/6)
= 5/24 * 6/5
= 6/24
= 1/4
