Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

4x + 24x - 2 = 7(4x +2)

First step is to expand the parenthesis on the left hand side by multiplying each term inside the parenthesis by the term outside the parenthesis. It becomes

4x + 24x - 2 = 28x + 14

Collecting like terms such that the terms containing x will be on the lefthand side and constant terms will be on the right hand side, it becomes

28x - 28x = 14 + 2

0 = 16

0 cannot be equal to 16. Therefore, there is no solution.

The likely error of my friend was

28x - 28x = x

Happy New Year from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Proof by ASA congruence postulate. See below

Discussion:

  Fact 1 :     angle A = angle T             (given)

  Fact 2:    The angles on both sides of point X are equal as vertical angles

                 are equal.

From these facts it follows that angle M = angle H (as all plane triangles have 180 degrees). Also  AM = TH  (given) so

   In the left triangle                          In the right triangle

  (angle M, side AM, angle A)  =      (angle H, side TH, angle T)


Hence the triangles have two congruent angles, and congruent sides included between the angles, so they are congruent by  ASA.


Thank you,

MrB

Mary can type six letters in 20 minutes, Maggie can type five letters in 20 minutes, and Su Ying can type two letters in 20 minu
Grace [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After 20 minutes, will all of them working together, they would have typed 13 letters. Then after another 20 minutes, it would be 26. Then 39. But after that is gets tricky. Mary types a letter every 3 minutes. Maggie types a letter every four minutes. and Su Ying types a letter every 10 minutes. After 6 minutes, the total would go to 42 letters. Then another 3 minutes it would be 44 letters. And finally, Su Ying finishes it. Taking a total of 70 minutes, or 1 hour and 10 minutes.

What is the value of 15/124•230/30 divided by 230/124
suter [353]
Okay, the first thing to do is to make it so you're multiplying everything instead of dividing by that last fraction. To divide by a fraction, you just multiply by its reciprocal. So then, it's 15/124 x 230/30 x 124/230. After that, let's organize it into one single giant fraction since order of operations allows us to arrange division and multiplication however we want. Then it's 15x230x124 / 124x30x230. Then, you'll notice that the 230s and 124s can both be canceled out, leaving 15/30. After simplifying, your final answer is 1/2.
