1.3 puzzle time why did the fraction jump into boiling water

Mathematics
1 answer:
Slav-nsk [51]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The fraction jumped into boiling water because it wanted to be reduced.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a maths riddle about fractions. We often see fractions that we might feel could be reduced. So, if these kinds of fractions jumps into a boiling water, they get reduced. The riddle is rather funny though.

2x-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{2(x-3)}{3}+1\ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 6\\\\6(2x)-6(\frac{1}{6})=6\left(\frac{2x-6}{3}\right)+6(1)\\\\12x-1=2(2x-6)+6\\\\12x-1=2(2x)+2(-6)+6\\\\12x-1=4x-12+6\\\\12x-1=4x-6\ \ \ \ |add\ 1\ to\ both\ sides\\\\12x=4x-5\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 4x\ from\ both\ sides\\\\8x=-5\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 8\\\\\boxed{\boxed{x=-\frac{5}{8}}}

Solve for m
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

m = 29/48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

x₂ = (y₂-y₁) +10 →(1

y₂ = y₁-x₁ → (2

y₁= 37

x₁ = 29

Now substitute the value of x₁ and y₁ into equation 2

y₂ = 37-29

y₂ = 8

Now substitute the value of y₂ and y₁ into equation 1

x₂ = (8-37) +10

x₂ = -19

As we know the slope (m) can be calculated as follows

m =(y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = (8- 37)/(-19 - 29)

m = (-29)/(-48)

m = 29/48

So our slope is 29/48

How many gallons of a 50% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 60 gallons of 30% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 40% antif
Mariulka [41]

I don't know what the "six-step method" is supposed to be, so I'll just demonstrate the typical method for this problem.

Let <em>x</em> be the amount (in gal) of the 50% antifreeze solution that is required. The new solution will then have a total volume of (<em>x</em> + 60) gal.

Each gal of the 50% solution used contributes 0.5 gal of antifreeze. Similarly, each gal of the 30% solution contributes 0.3 gal of antifreeze. So the new solution will contain (0.5 <em>x</em> + 0.3 * 60) gal = (0.5 <em>x</em> + 18) gal of antifreeze.

We want the concentration of antifreeze to be 40% in the new solution, so we need to have

(0.5 <em>x</em> + 18) / (<em>x</em> + 60) = 0.4

Solve for <em>x</em> :

0.5 <em>x</em> + 18 = 0.4 (<em>x</em> + 60)

0.5 <em>x</em> + 18 = 0.4 <em>x</em> + 24

0.5 <em>x</em> - 0.4 <em>x</em> = 24 - 18

0.1 <em>x</em> = 6

<em>x</em> = 6/0.1 = 60 gal
