What is the solution to the equation 2/3 x + 1 = 1/6 x -7

Mathematics
1 answer:
slamgirl [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 x + 1 = 1/6 x -7

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6 to eliminate the fraction

6*(2/3 x + 1) =6( 1/6 x -7)

4x +6 = x -42

Subtract x from each side

4x-x +6 = -42

3x +6= - 42

Subtract 6 from each side

3x+6-6 = -42-6

3x = -48

3x/3 = -48/3

x = -16

You will begin with a relatively standard calculation. consider a concave spherical mirror with a radius of curvature equal to 6
vodomira [7]
We are given a concave spherical mirror with the following dimensions:

Radius = 60 cm; D o = 30 cm
Height = 6 cm; h o = 6 cm

First, we need to know the focal length, f, of the object (this should be given). Then we can use the following formulas for calculation: 

Assume f = 10 cm

1/ f = 1 /d o + 1 / d i
1 / 10 = 1 / 30 + 1 / d i

d i = 15 cm

Then, calculate for h i:

h i / h o = - d i / d o

h i / 6 = - 15 / 30

h i = - 3 cm

Therefore, the distance of the object from the mirror is 3 centimeters. The negative sign means it is "inverted".

MODELING REAL LIFE There are a total of 64 students in a filmmaking club and a yearbook club. The filmmaking club has 14 more st
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

The system of linear equations is x + y = 64 and x = y + 14.

Given that,

The total number of students is 64 .

Here we assume the x be the number of students in filmmaking club .

And, y be the number of students in yearbook club.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

x + y = 64

And,

x = y + 14

Therefore,

We can say that

Number of students in yearbook club = 25

And, the number of students in filmmaking club = 39
