3/8=9/24 and 1/6=4/24
9/24+4/24=13/24
Paula spent 13/24 of her allowance on other items.
Answer:
w > -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides by -6.
-6w/-6 = w
84/-6 = 14
Since it's an equality, if the coefficient of the variable is negative, when you divide the sign flips to the opposite.
Answer:
62 words/minute
Step-by-step explanation:
496 words divided by 8 minutes= 62 words in one minute
x = 3 + y Eqn(1)
y = -2x + 9 Eqn(2)
Let us solve the system of equations with the substitution method
x - 3 = y (Subtracting 3 from both sides of the Eqn(1))
Replacing y = x - 3 in Eqn (2), we have:
x - 3 = -2x + 9
x = -2x + 9 + 3 (Adding 3 to both sides of the equation)
x + 2x = 9 + 3 (Adding 2x to both sides of the equation)
3x = 12 ( Adding like terms)
x = 12/3 (Dividing by 3 on both sides of the equation)
x = 4
Replacing x=4 in Eqn(1), we have:
4 = 3 + y
4 - 3 = y (Subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation)
y=1
The answers are:
x= 4 and y=1
Answer: Both the equations when solved have different answers, the solutions for both the equation are given below. In the the first equation 4 (x-3)=16 , 4 is multiplied with both the terms in the bracket. Whereas, in the second equation 4x- 2 = 16 there is no variable to multiply with the LHS equation
Solution:
4 (x-3)=16
4x - 12 = 16
4x = 16 + 12
4x = 28
x = 7
4x - 3 = 16
4x = 16 + 3
4x = 19
x = 19/4
x = 4.75
