Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3(2x-8) =4

Multiply each side by 2

3*1/3(2x-8) =4*3

2x-8 = 12

Add 8 to each side

2x = 12+8

2x= 20

Divide by 4

2x/2 =20/2

x= 10

Write a story that can be represented by the equation y=x+1/4x

makvit [3.9K]

This question is pretty much asking: Write a story that can be represented by the equation y=1.25x.

So, how about this one: Lily's mom tells Lily to clean up her toys. Lily puts toys away at a rate of one toy per every 1.25 seconds.

That's it, simple as that :P

(Sorry if it wasn't too helpful.)

On the following number line, two rational numbers are graphed.Represent the two numbers as fractions (or mixed numbers) in lowe

nordsb [41]

The first graphed rational number is at the middle of -2 and -1, thus the number represented is $-1 \frac{1}{2}$

The second graphed number is five out of six places from from 0 to 1, thus the number graphed is $0+ \frac{5}{6} = \frac{5}{6}$

The difference between the two numbers can be represented as
$-1 \frac{1}{2} - \frac{5}{6}$
or
$\frac{5}{6} -(-1 \frac{1}{2} )= \frac{5}{6} +1 \frac{1}{2}$

To find the difference,

$-1 \frac{1}{2} - \frac{5}{6} \\ \\ =-1 \frac{3+5}{6} \\ \\ =-1 \frac{8}{6} =-2 \frac{2}{6} \\ \\ =-2 \frac{1}{3}$

Also,

$\frac{5}{6} +1 \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ =1 \frac{5+3}{6} \\ \\ =1 \frac{8}{6} =2 \frac{2}{6} \\ \\ =2 \frac{1}{6}$
