Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{4}{3}x - \frac{1}{3} = 9

Required

Solve for x

\frac{4}{3}x - \frac{1}{3} = 9

Add \frac{1}{3} to both sides

\frac{4}{3}x - \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3} = 9 + \frac{1}{3}

\frac{4}{3}x = 9 + \frac{1}{3}

Take LCM

\frac{4}{3}x = \frac{27 + 1}{3}

\frac{4}{3}x = \frac{28}{3}

Multiply both sides by \frac{3}{4}

\frac{3}{4} * \frac{4}{3}x = \frac{3}{4} *\frac{28}{3}

Evaluate the left hand side

x = \frac{3}{4} *\frac{28}{3}

x = \frac{28}{4}

Divide 28 by 4

x = 7

Help me solve this equation and show work <br><br> 11d + 17b = 95 <br> d + b = 7
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

{d,b}={4,3}

Step-by-step explanation:

[1]    11d + 17b = 95

  [2]    d + b = 7

Graphic Representation of the Equations :

   17b + 11d = 95        b + d = 7  

 

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  b

 [2]    b = -d + 7

// Plug this in for variable  b  in equation [1]

  [1]    11d + 17•(-d +7) = 95

  [1]    -6d = -24

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  d

  [1]    6d = 24

  [1]    d = 4

// By now we know this much :

   d = 4

   b = -d+7

// Use the  d  value to solve for  b

   b = -(4)+7 = 3

Solution :

{d,b} = {4,3}
