Answer:
x = 1/3 + sqrt(5/2)/3 or x = 1/3 - sqrt(5/2)/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
6 x^2 - 4 x = 1
Divide both sides by 6:
x^2 - (2 x)/3 = 1/6
Add 1/9 to both sides:
x^2 - (2 x)/3 + 1/9 = 5/18
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x - 1/3)^2 = 5/18
Take the square root of both sides:
x - 1/3 = sqrt(5/2)/3 or x - 1/3 = -sqrt(5/2)/3
Add 1/3 to both sides:
x = 1/3 + sqrt(5/2)/3 or x - 1/3 = -sqrt(5/2)/3
Add 1/3 to both sides:
Answer: x = 1/3 + sqrt(5/2)/3 or x = 1/3 - sqrt(5/2)/3
Answer:
3 3/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Conversion a mixed number 8 1/2
to a improper fraction: 8 1/2=8×2+1/2=16+1/2=17/2
To find a new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 2 by the denominator 3. Whole number 2 equally 2×3/3= 6/
3
b) Add the answer from previous step 6 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 6 + 2 = 8
c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 8) over the denominator 3.
Two and two thirds is eight thirds
Divide: 17/2×8/3=17/2×3/8=17×3/2×8= 51/
16
Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 8/3 is 3/8) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.
In other words - seventeen halves divided by eight thirds = fifty-one sixteenths.
51/16
3 3/16
Answer:
Megan travelled at 9mph for 6 hours and 7mph for 3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed = distance / time
Speed*time = distance
Assuming that Megan travelled x hours at 9mph
(9*x) + (7*(9-x)) = 75
x = 6 hours
So Megan travelled at 9mph for 6 hours and 7mph for 3 hours
X-(4.5+1.5+1+3)= 8
x-10=8
+10. +10
x= 18
He took $18 to the fair. You take his original amount and subtract the things he paid for/bought to get what he came home with. I hope it helps!
subtract 2x from both sides... 6x=2 divide by 6 = .3
