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

An equation of a function y(t) is shown.
Sav [38]
From the given function, to explain the correct answer I will plot the graph for :
y(t)=-t^2+14t-40
thus the graph will be as shown in the figure:
From the graph we deduce that the correct statement is:
y'(t)=-2t+14=0
thus
t=7
thus
y(7)=0
thus the correct statement is:
