(2/3)-(1/X+6)=2 solve for x

1 answer:

8 0

We have a fraction with the unknown in the denominator, review how to treat unknowns in the denominator as a refresher for this exercise:
<span>(2/3) - (1/x + 6) = 2
</span>(2/3) - (1 + 6x)/x = <span>2
</span>(2/3) - 2 = (1 + 6x)/x
2/3 - 6/3 = (1 + <span>6x)/x
-4/3 = </span>(1 + <span>6x)/x
-4x = 3</span>(1 + <span>6x)
</span><span>-4x = 3 + 18x
</span>22x = -3
x = -3/22

$\boxed{\boxed{ \ 0.061 \frac{inch^3}{cm^3}\ }}$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

We will calculate the unit conversion factor used to convert its engine displacement from cubic-centimeters to cubic-inches.

The relationships between inch and cm are as follows:

$\boxed{ \ 1 \ inch = 2.54 \ cm\ }$

Inches and cm represent units of length.

Made into fractions, 1 inch as the denominator and 2.54 cm as the numerator.

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1 \ inch}{2.54 \ cm} \ }$

As a unit conversion factor of volume, the numerator and the denominator in cubic.

$\boxed{ \ \frac{(1 \ inch)^3}{(2.54 \ cm)^3} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ \frac{1 \ inch^3}{16.387 \ cm^3} \ }$

Thus, we get the unit conversion factor

$\boxed{\boxed{ \ 0.061 \frac{inch^3}{cm^3}\ }}$

Let's use this unit conversion factor to calculate its engine displacement in new units.

$\boxed{= 1,043 \ cm^3 \times 0.061 \ \frac{inch^3}{cm^3}}$

Note for cm³ units that have been crossed out.

The conversion result is $\ \boxed{ \ 63.623 \ inch^3\ }$
