Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Subtract 1/2x on both sides
-1/4x - 1/8 = 7/8
Step 2: Add 1/8 on both sides
-1/4x = 1
Step 3: Divide both sides by -1/4
x = -4
3x+2y=11--------x1
7x-y=3------------x2
3x+2y=11---equ 1
14x-2y=6---equ 2
equ 1+ equ 2 will eliminate y
17x=17
x=1
then put x=1 in equ 1
3(1)+2y=11
2y=11-3
2y=8
y=8/2
y=4
Hey there, 5-3=2, 8/9-2/9=6/9, We have 2 6/9, 6/9=2/3, Therefore, we have an answer of 2 2/3.
Two 1/3s (2/3) and 1/6 get you 5/6 a inch
basically:
2/3+1/6=5/6
