Answer:

x = x - 4/6

false

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x - 1) - 4x = 2(3x - 5)

First, lets distribute the 6 to each item inside the parentheses on the left side. You can do this by multiplying the 6 by each term.

6 * x = 6x

6 * -1 = -6

6x - 6 - 4x = 2(3x - 5)

Next, we will combine like terms.

6x - 4x = 2x

2x - 6 = 2(3x - 5)

Now, let's look at the right side of the equation.

Let's distribute the 2 to each item inside the parentheses on the left side. You can do this by multiplying the 2 by each term.

2 * 3x = 6x

2 * -5 = -10

6x - 1 = 6x - 5

Immediately, we can tell this is false, but let's solve the equation just to make sure.

6x - 1 = 6x - 5

+1              +1

6x = 6x - 4

---     --------

6        6

x = x - 4/6

This is false.

Ms.Malone received $3.40 in change. What is the amount as a fraction in simplest terms.
sammy [17]
To write 3.40 as a fraction you have to write 3.40 as numerator and put 1 as the denominator. Now you multiply numerator and denominator by 10 as long as you get in numerator the whole number.
3.40 = 3.40/1 = 34/10

And finally we have:
3.40 as a fraction equals 34/10 simplified we get: 3 2/5

Carl worked six and one-half hours on Monday. He worked eight and two-third hours on Tuesday. How many hours did Carl work in al
Gnoma [55]

Answer: 15 hours and 37 minutes


Step-by-step explanation: 6 and 1/2 hours is 6 hours and 30 mins

8 and 2/3 hours is 8 hours and 67 mins


So 8 hours + 6 hours is 14 hours


Since 67 minutes is over an hour, we're going to take 60 minutes from 67, leaving u with 7 minutes


Add the 60 minutes to the 14 hours and you get 15 hours.


Take the 7 minutes and add it to the 30 minutes and you get 37 minutes.


All together the answer is 15 hours and 37 minutes

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!<br> What is the 8th term of this sequence? 1,-1/2,1/4,-1/8
Tom [10]
This is a geometric sequence with first term 1 and common ratio -1/2.  r=-1/2.

a(n) = a(1)*(r)^(n-1). 

Check:  If n=2 our formula must return -1/2.  Does it?

a(2) =    1(-1/2)^(2-1)  =  (-1/2)^1 = - 1/2.  Yes.
a(3) should be 1/4.  Is it?     a(3) = (-1/2)^(3-1) = 1/4    Yes. 

Then a(8) = (-1/2)^(8-1) = (-1/2)^7 = -1 / 2^7  = -1/128 (answer)
