-1/2x + 1/8 = -1/3x - i/4

Mathematics
1 answer:
brilliants [131]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x= 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

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

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

-3/(6x)+2(6x) = -2/8 -1/8

- 1/(6x) = - 3/8

-1*8 = -3*6x

8=18x

x= 8/18= 4/9

Check:

-1/(2*4/9) + 1/8 = -1/(3*4/9) - 1/4

- 1(8/9) + 1/8 = - 1/(4/3)-1/4

-9/8+1/8 = - 3/4-1/4

-1 = -1

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 + 17x +10 =0

(3x+   ) ( x+   ) =0

We need to factor 10  = 2*5  or 1*10

They are positive since we have all positive terms

3*5 = 15+2 = 17

The 5 needs to multiply the 3 so it goes on the outside

(3x+   ) ( x+  5 ) =0

That leaves the 2 on the inside

(3x+ 2  ) ( x+ 5  ) =0

Using the zero product property

3x+2 =0     x+5=0

3x = -2          x=-5

x = -2/3          x = -5

-2.105 as a fraction?
Bezzdna [24]
The easiest way is if it doesn't need to be simplified. Multiply -2.105 by \frac{1000}{1000}. You get the fraction -\frac{2105}{1000}. While this is technically the answer, you can simplify this down to \frac{421}{200}. Because 421 is a prime number, this can not be simplified any further. Therefore, the solution is \frac{421}{200}.

\frac{421}{200}.

Consider all 5 letter "words" made from the full English alphabet. (a) How many of these words are there total? (b) How many of
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

a) There are 11,881,336 of these words in total.

b) There are 7,893,600 of these words with no repeated letters.

c) 896,376 of these words start with an a or end with a z or both

Step-by-step explanation:

Our words have the following format:

L1 - L2 - L3 - L4 - L5

In which L1 is the first letter, L2 the second letter, etc...

There are 26 letters in the English alphabet.

(a) How many of these words are there total?

Each of L1, L2, L3, L4 and L5 have 26 possible options.

So there are 26^{5} = 11,881,336 of these words total

(b) How many of these words contain no repeated letters?

The first letter can be any of them, so L1 = 26.

At the second letter, the first one cannot be repeated, so L2 = L1 - 1 = 25.

At the third letter, nor the first nor the second one can be repeated, so L3 = L1 - 2 = 24

This logic applies until L5

So we have

26-25-24-23-22

In total there are

26*25*24*23*22 = 7,893,600

of these words with no repeated letters.

(c) How many of these words start with an a or end with a z or both (repeated letters are allowed)?

T = T_{1} + T_{2} + T_{3}

T_{1} is the number of words that start with an a and do not end with z. So we have

1 - 26 - 26 - 26 - 25

The first letter can only be a, and the last one cannot be z. So:

T_{1} = 26^{3}*25 = 439,400

T_{2} is the number of words that start with any letter other than a and end with z. So we have

25 - 26 - 26 - 25 - 1

The first letter can be any of them, other than a, and the last can only be z. So:

T_{2} = 26^{3}*25 = 439,400

T_{3} is the number of words that both start with a and end with z. So:

1 - 26 - 26 - 26 - 1

The first letter can only be a, and the last can only be z. The other three letters could be anything. So:

T_{3} = 26^{3} = 17,576

T = T_{1} + T_{2} + T_{3} = 2*439,400 + 17,576 = 896,376

896,376 of these words start with an a or end with a z or both

Gerry spends $1.25 each day on lunch at school. On Fridays, she buys an extra snack for $0.55. How much money will she spend in
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$13.60

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's find how much Gerry spends on lunch in 2 weeks (assuming she goes to school 5 days a week):

$1.25*10=$12.50

Now we find out how much she pays for the extra snack. Since in 2 weeks there are 2 Fridays then:

0.55*2=$1.10

Then we add these two together to get:

$12.50+$1.10=$13.60
