Answer:



One days trip of to school from home and back home from school is 2/3 of a mile. We want to know how far it is to school from her house.

To solve this, we simply need to take half of the total distance (2/3)

\frac{2}{3} / 2

Next, we need to turn the 2 into a fraction. Every whole number can be made into a fraction by putting it over 1.

\frac{2}{3} / \frac{2}{1}

Because we are dividing, we need to invert the second fraction and then multiply.

\frac{2}{3} * \frac {1}{2}

Next, we multiply the top of the first fraction by the top of the second and the bottom of the first fraction by the bottom of the second.

\frac{2}{6}

Once you reduce, you get:

\frac{1}{3}

What number goes in the box in the followng sequence 5 11 23 ? 95 191​
Alina [70]

Answer:

47

Step-by-step explanation:

The number that should go after 23 is 47.

The pattern seems to be (n * 2) + 1, where n is the value of the previous number.

We start with the number 5:

5

(5 * 2) + 1  = 11

11

(11 * 2) + 1 = 23

23

(23 * 2) + 1 = 47

47

... and so on

The pattern should continue as follows.

Hope this helps!

3x-4 or = to 7<br><br><br> plz help
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

3 + 4 = 7  which is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you have an equation with a plain variable (that is, no exponent included), there is only one number that will work when substituted for x.

To solve it, you have to "undo" what is done to the variable. You also go in the reverse order of operations, so you do the addition/subtract first, then multiplication/division.

You also have to do the same to both sides, kind of like keeping a balance scale in balance.

In this case, we subtract 4 from both sides first:

3x + 4 -4 = 7 - 4

The + 4 - 4 cancel each other out, so you get:

3x = 3

3x means "3 times x" so you divide by 3 to undo it. I will use the / to indicate division:

3x / 3 = 3 /3  

so 1x = 1.

Since 1x is "1 times x" it is the same as x by itself, so:

x=1

AND, if we substitute 1 back into the original equation (the asterisk stands for multiply):

3 * 1 + 4 = 7

3 * 1 is 3, so:

3 + 4 = 7     which is true.

1 is the only number that works.

Hope this helped.
