Solve for x. 2/3(3x−4)+3x=5/6

Mathematics
1 answer:
BartSMP [9]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

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

2x - 8/3 + 3x = 5/6

5x - 8/3 = 5/6

6(5x -8/3) = 6x5/6

30x - 16 = 5

<u>       +16    +16</u>

<u>30x = 21</u>

   30

x = 21/30

x = 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. distribute the bracket by 2/3
  2. combine like-terms
  3. multiply both sides by 6 (lcm of 3 and 6)
  4. add 16 to both sides
  5. divide both sides by 30 to get x

Jamal filled his gas tank and then use 7/16 of the tank for traveling to visit his grandfather. He then used 1/3 of the remainin
Lisa [10]

Answer:

\frac{3}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's tackle each statement at a time:

<em>Jamal filled his gas tank of which he used \frac{7}{16}.</em>

We need to express the unit (a gas tank) in terms of fractions so that we can substract 1-\frac{7}{16}.

The denominator of the second term of our substraction is 16, so we can express the first term as \frac{16}{16}. Now that we have the same denominator in both terms, we can proceed to define 16 as a common denominator and rewrite the expression as: \frac{16-7}{16}, which gives us a result of \frac{9}{16}, which is what Jamal has left after visiting his grandfather. This expression cannot be simplified anymore.

<em>Then, he used \frac{1}{3} of the remaining \frac{9}{16}.</em>

We express it as if he had \frac{2}{3} of the remaining <em>\frac{9}{16}.</em>:

\frac{9}{16} *\frac{2}{3}

We multiply the terms:

\frac{18}{48}

And simplify:

\frac{9}{24}

\frac{3}{8}

So, at the end, Jamal has \frac{3}{8} of his tank left.
