Please help! Solve x/12+1/3=−5/3. What is x?

Answer: x = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

X/12 + 1/3 = -5/3

Find the LCM of the left hand side of the equation:

x + 4/12 = -5/3

Then cross multiply

3(x + 4) = -5/3

Open the bracket

3x + 12 = - 60

Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation

3x + 12 - 12 = -60 - 12

3x = -72

Divide both sides by 3

x = -72/3

x = -24

Check:

-24/12 + 1/3 = -5/3

Find the LCM of the left hand side of the equation

-24 + 4/12 = -20/12

Divide by a common factor of 4

-20/12 = -5/3

6x + 12 = 90

     - 12    -12

6x = 78

x = 13°

BPQ = ((4(13) + 12)°

           (52 + 12)°

Lena [83]

It is generally useful to use the formula. The procedure is to substitute the given values for the variables in the formula, then do the arithmetic.

... A = (1/2)r²·θ . . . . r is the radius, θ is the central angle in radians

Put the numbers in ...

... A = (1/2)(4 in)²·(π/3)

... A = 8π/3 in² ≈ 8.37758 in²

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)
Allushta [10]

Answer:

2nd option: (0.5, 7), maximum; (2, 1) point of inflection; (3.5, -5), minimum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum point, or a point of the graph with the highest y-value, is at

(0.5, 7).

The minimum point, or a point of the graph with the lowest y-value, is at

(3.5, -5).

The point of inflection is where the graph begins to change direction. This is at (2, 1).

Therefore, the 2nd option is correct.
