What is the solution to the equation? 2/3 a - 1/6 = 1/3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Crank3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a = \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

When working with fractions, I would mostly like to make the denominators the same first.  

\frac{2}{3}a - \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{3}

Make all the denominators 6.

\frac{4}{6}a - \frac{1}{6} = \frac{2}{6}

Isolate \frac{4}{6}a.

\frac{4}{6}a = \frac{2}{6} + \frac{1}{6}

   = \frac{3}{6}

Find a.

\frac{6}{6}a = \frac{6}{4} × \frac{3}{6}

a = \frac{3}{4}

LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Y=4x+12
y=-2(x+2)2+2=>y=-4x-4+2=-4x-2=>
y=-4x+2
Use the elimination property:
2y=14
y=7
Put y value back to the first equation: 7=4x+12, solve for x and -5=4xso x=-5/4

1 1/2+2/5 how do I solve
raketka [301]
You can change the denominator to 10 which will get you to 55/10 + 4/10. You can add these two together to get 59/10

Westkost [7]

<span>Assuming the reaction is of 1st order, we can start using the formula for rate of 1st order reaction:</span>

dN / dt = k * N

Rearranging,

dN / N = k dt

Where N = amount of sample, k = rate constant, t = time

Integrating the equation from N = Ni to Nf and t = ti to tf will result in:

ln (Nf / Ni) = k (tf – ti)

Since k is constant, we can equate to situations. Situation 1 is triple in size every days, situation 2 is after 20 days.

ln (Nf / Ni) / (tf – ti) = k

ln (3Ni / Ni) / 4 = ln (Nf / 40) / 20

Calculating for Nf,

<span>Nf = 9,720 bacteria </span>
