When solving for a variable in an equation, get it separated from the others onto one side typically the left hand side and rest onto the opposite side usually the right hand side.
V = x / t
First, let us get the 't' variable out of denominator position and then it will be easier to work with.
V * t = (x / t) * t
Why did I multiply each side by 't' and not just the "x / t" expression? That is because every operation we do on one side, we must also do on the opposite side.
Okay, now we get the following equation.
V * t = x
We removed the 't' variable from denominator and in fact, it doesn't even exist anymore on the right hand side!
To complete this question, all we have to do is divide each side by 'V' and we are done!
(V * t) / V = x / V
Comes out to:
t = x / V
And there is your answer! Hope this helps with your adventure in learning Algebra!
<span>Jerry is 8 years younger than Patricia, so:
(1): Jerry = Patricia - 8
Six years ago, Patricia was 3 times as old as Jerry was then, so:
(2): (Patricia - 6) = (Jerry - 6)*3
Putting equation 1 in to equation 2
(Patricia - 6) = (Patricia - 8 - 6)*3
Patricia - 6 = 3Patricia - 42
36 = 2Patricia
Patricia = 18
And so Jerry = 10</span>
3 2/5 x 2 1/3 rewrite
12/5 x 7/3 convert into fractions instead of mixed fraction then multiply straight across
84/15 would be your final answer you might need to reduce it though :) hope i helped
Answer:
let, the days for 10 men be x
- 30/10=x/30
- 900=10x
- x=900/10
- x=90
so 10 men can complete the same work in 90days.
Hope it helps.
You must get x by itself and eliminate the negative of the x. By doing that, you can get x<-1/6
