Solve for x: two thirds plus one third times x equals two times x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Salsk061 [2.6K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:  x = 2/5 in fraction form

In decimal form, the answer is x = 0.4

====================================================

Work Shown:

2/3 = two thirds

2/3 + (1/3)x = 2x  is the equation you're given

Multiply every term by 3 so that we clear out the fractions

3*(2/3) + 3*(1/3)x = 3*2x

2 + x = 6x

From here, we solve for x

2 + x = 6x

2+x-x = 6x-x .... subtract x from both sides

2 = 5x

5x = 2

5x/5 = 2/5 ... divide both sides by 5

x = 2/5

x = 0.4

What is the exact simple interest on 150-day loan of 2,350 at %10
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

  96.58

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is ...

  I = Prt

where P is the principal, r is the rate, and t is the time period in years.

Exact interest is computed using 365 days per year, so the time period is ...

  t = 150/365

Then the interest is ...

  I = 2350(0.10)(150/365) = 96.58

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

d. (3, 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates of point W " on the final image is (3 8) Solution-means first the point is translated left by 4 units and translated up by 2 units then it is reflected across y axis. (the rules follow right to left approach) The co-ordinate of point W is ( 1 6 ). After 4 units translation to left and 2 units translation to up the co-ordinates

Solteros= 27

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Entiendo que de los 120 tripulantes, sobrevivió el 30%. Y de los sobrevivientes, 25% son casados.</u>

<u></u>

Primero, debemos calcular la cantidad de sobrevivientes:

Sobrevivientes= 120*0.3= 36

Ahora la cantidad de casados, y por diferencia los solteros:

Casados= 36*0.25= 9

Solteros= 36 - 9

How many solutions does this linear system have?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer: C is correct, No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s simplify the second equation,

8x-4y=-20

We can divide the whole equation by 4...

8x/4-4y/4=-20/4

Which becomes....

2x-y=-5

Now let’s move things around to see if it’s the same equation as the one on top...

-y=-2x-5

y=2x+5

Now we need to solve the systems...

y=2x-5

y=2x+5

Since their slopes are both 2 and their y-intercepts are not identical, the answer is no solution. The two lines will continue on without ever crossing because they have the same slope.

What is the value of the expression when c = 4 c/2
Grace [21]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 4 for c.

(c³)/2 = (4³)/2

First, solve the parenthesis, then divide. Multiply:

4³ = 4 * 4 * 4 = 16 * 4 = 64

Next, divide:

64/2 = 32

32 is your answer.
