Simplify the equation.

First, distribute the 2 in the left side of the equation.
Resulting in: 2x-6 = (x-1) + 7

Second, remove the parentheses form the right side of the equation (there is nothing to distribute there).
Resulting in: x - 1 + 7

Now simplify the right side of the equation by subtracting the 1 from the 7.
Resulting in: x + 6

Our goal is to isolate the x to the left side, and the numerals to the right side.
With that in mind, add the 6 (from the right side) to both sides. This cancels out the 6 on the right side.
Resulting in: 2x = 12

Lastly, in order to fully isolate the variable (x), we divide both sides by 2.
Resulting in: x = 6

Hope this helps.

A point Q on a segment with endpoints A (2, −1) and C (4, 2) partitions the segment in a 4:1 ratio. Find Q.
Annette [7]

The point Q on a line segment with end points(2,1) and (4,2) is Q(12/5, -2/5)

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment is a straight line that passes through two given points.

The end points of the line determine how long or short a given line segment would be.

Analysis:

point Q(x, y )

x = \frac{MX1 + NX2}{M+N}

y = \frac{MY1 + MY2}{M+N}

where M :N = 4:1

x1 = 2, x2 = 4, y1 = -1, y2 = 2

x = \frac{4(2) +1(4)}{4+1} = 12/5

y = \frac{4(-1) + 1(2)}{4+1} = -2/5

In conclusion, the point Q is (12/5, -2/5).

Help me on 1,2,3,5,and 6 please
arlik [135]
Since most of these are mixed number you have to convert them into improper fractions.
For an example 2 3/4 x 1/2
First you would have the convert 2 3/4
You would add 2 to 3 then multiply 2 to 4
So it would be (2x4) + 3
You keep the denominator of the originally fraction so it would be 11/4
Then to finish you would multiply straight across so
11x1= 11
4x2=8
11/8
1 3/8
Hope this helps!!

Divide the number 20 into two parts (not necessarily integers) in a way that makes the product of one part with the square of th
Ilya [14]

Answer:

13 1/3 and  6 2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 parts be x and (20 - x).

So x^2(20 - x) must be a maximum.

y = x^2(20 - x)

y = 20x^2 - x^3

Finding the derivative):

y' =  40x - 3x^2 = 0   for  maxm/minm value.

x( 40 - 3x) = 0

40 - 3x = 0

3x = 40

x = 40/3.

This is a maximum because the second derivative y" =  40 - 6x = 40 - 6(40/3)) is negative.

So the 2 numbers are 13 1/3 and  6 2/3.
