Answer: 2/6 and 1/3
Step-by-step explanation: Equivalent fractions are fractions that have the same value but have different top and bottom numbers.
We can find 1 equivalent fraction by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 2 and we get 2/6. We can also reduce 2/6 by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 2 and we get 1/3.
So two equivalent fractions for 4/12 would be 2/6 and 1/3.
Answer:
Student B is correct
Student A failed to distribute -4 and -6 when opening the brackets in the first step
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution Student A gave was:
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
2x - 12x + 6 = -12x + 1 - 4
-10x + 6 = -12x - 3
2x = -9
x = -4 _1 2 ( -4 1/2)
The solution Student B gave was:
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
2x - 12x - 24 = -12x - 6 - 4
-10x - 24 = -12x - 10
2x = 14
x = 7
Student B is correct.
Explanation of the error:
Student A failed to distribute -4 and -6 when opening the brackets in the first step.
That is,
2x - 4(3x + 6) = -6(2x + 1) - 4
To open this bracket, we will distribute, -4 and -6 so that we get
2x (-4 × 3x) + (-4 × +6) = (-6×2x) + (-6 × +1) - 4
Then we will get
2x -12x -24 = -12x -6 -4
Adding the like terms
-10x - 24 = -12x - 10
Collecting like terms
-10x + 12x = -10 + 24
∴ 2x = 14
x = 14 / 2
Hence,
x = 7
Answer:
3956
Step-by-step explanation:
92 * 43
92 * 40 = 3680
92 * 3 = 276
3680 + 276 = 3956
Answer:
$728
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for simple interest is I = PRT, where I = interest earned/paid, P = principal amount deposited or borrowed, R = rate of interest as a decimal, and T = time in years.
I = PRT
I = (4000)(0.052)(3.5)
I = 728
