2/3a - 2= 1/3
add 2 to both sides
2/3a= 2 1/3
change mixed fraction to improper
2/3a= 7/3
divide both sides by 2/3
a= 7/3 ÷ 2/3
to divide fraction, multiply by reciprocal (inverse)
a= 7/3 * 3/2
a= (7*3)/(3*2)
a= 21/6
reduce by 3
a= 7/2 OR 3 1/2

ANSWER: 7/2 OR 3 1/2

Hope this helps! :)

2/3a - 2 = 1/3
2/3a = 2 + 1/3
2/3a = 7/3
a = (7/3) / (2/3)
a = (7/3) * (3/2)
a = 21/6
a = 7/2 ---- that is the answer

Hope this helps!

Find the quotient of n(x) = 6x^5y^7 and m(x) = 2x^3y
likoan [24]

Answer:

a.  Yes

b.  Yes

c. Yes

d. Degree 8

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Yes, n(x) is a polynomial of one single term (also called monomial) because it contains variables raised to positive integers.

b. Yes, m(x) is a polynomial of also one single term (also called monomial) because it contains variables raised to positive integers.

c. The quotient of n(x) / m(x) can be reduced to a polynomial of one single term as follows:

\frac{n(x)}{m(x)} =\frac{6\,x^5\,y^7}{2\,x^3\,y} =3\,x^2\,y^6

which as can be seen, also contains variables raised to positive integers.

d. The degree of the polynomial resultant is the addition of the powers of all variables present (x and y) which results in: 2 + 6 = 8

Therefore the degree of this polynomial is 8.

5/6-1/8 Solve by finding a common denominator<br><br> A)30/48<br> B)34/48<br> C)38/48<br> D)42/48
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

  B)  34/48

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest common denominator to find is the product of the denominators you have.

__

The difference is ...

  \dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{1}{8}=\dfrac{5}{6}\cdot\dfrac{8}{8}-\dfrac{1}{8}\cdot\dfrac{6}{6}\\\\=\dfrac{40-6}{48}=\boxed{\dfrac{34}{48}}

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The difference numerator and denominator have a common factor of 2, so can be reduced to 17/24. The denominator 24 could have been used as the common denominator from the start.

  5/6 -1/8 = 20/24 -3/24 = 17/24 . . . . reduced result

__

Using the <em>least common denominator</em> does not always result in a reduced sum or difference. If some other denominator is used (as here), then you can be assured that the result will need to be reduced to get to lowest terms.
