Answer:

x=24

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equation:

2/3 * x = 16

Multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 to isolate the variable, we get

3/2 * 2/3 * x = 16* 3/2

1*x=24

x=24

A farmer uses 3/5 of his land to grow cassava, 1/3 of the remainder for yam and the rest for maize. Find the part of the land us
alexira [117]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cassava = 1/3 of his land

Remaining after planting Cassava = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 of his land

Maize = 2/5 x 2/3 = 4/15 of his land

Vegetables = 2/3 - 4/15 = 2/5 of his land

If vegetables = 10 acres

2/5 of his land = 10 acres

1/5 of his land = 10 ÷ 2 = 5 acres

5/5 of his land = 5 x 5 = 25 acres

In the solution of the equation 5 + 3x = -2x + 9, 2 x is added to the equation first. which of the following should be done next
wariber [46]

Hi!

<h3>Let's do the first step (add 2x). </h3>

5 + 3x + 2x = -2x + 2x + 9

<em>5 + 5x = 9</em>

<h3>Our goal is to isolate x on one side, so the next step would be to subtract 5 (or add -5).</h3>

5 + -5 + 5x = 9 + -5

<u><em>5x = 4</em></u>

<h2>The answer is B. add -5</h2><h3><em>And if you want to finish solving, you would divide by 5 on both sides.</em></h3>

5x/5 = 4/5

x = 0.8

Hope this helps! :)
