Solve 1/3x - 5/6x =1/4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]4 years ago

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\frac{1}{3}x  - \frac{5}{6} x = \frac{1}{4}

Find the common denominator for the fractions, which is 6. Rewrite 1/3 as 2/6.

\frac{2}{6}x  - \frac{5}{6} x = \frac{1}{4}

Combine like terms.

-\frac{3}{6} x = \frac{1}{4}

Simplify.

-0.5x = 1/4

Divide both sides by -0.5.

x = -1/2 = -0.5

Ronald is making hats and scarves for charity. He has enough yarn to make 5 hats and 8 scarves. Takes him 12 hrs to knit a hat,
kari74 [83]

Constraints are simply the subjects of an objective function.

The inequality that represents the constraint is: 12x + 6y \le 20

Represent the number of hats with x, and the number of scarves with y.

From the question, we have:

  • He spends 12 hours to knit a hat
  • He spends 6 hours to knit a scarf

So, the equation of the total time spent is:

Time = 12x + 6y

This time spent is not more than 20 hours.

So, the inequality is

12x + 6y \le 20

Hence, the inequality that represents the constraint is: 12x + 6y \le 20
