How to solve 3x/7 - 1/2 = 1/14

Mathematics

nlexa [21]3 years ago

Answer: 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we should all get the denominators to be the same.

14 is the LCM of each of the denominators, so:

3x / 7 times 2/2 = 6x/14

-1/2 times 7/7 = -7/14

and 1/14 is 1/14

So now we have

6x/7 + -7/14 = 1/14

We can multiply everything by 14 to get rid of the denominator completely, which leaves us with:

6x - 7 = 1

Then we just solve like a normal equation:

6x = 8

x = 8/6 , or 4/3

Two cards are drawn from a standard deck of cards without replacement. Find the probability of drawing a heart and a club in tha
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

4/663

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

Since we are to draw from a pack of card, the total outcome will be 52

Since there are 4 hearts;

Pr(selecting heart) = 4/52 = 1/13

If a club is then selected without replacement, the total number of card remaining will be 51;

Pr(selecting a heart) = 4/51

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 4/52 * 4/51

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 16/2652

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 4/663

HELP 99 PTS=50 PTS Theresa has two brothers, Paul and Steve, who are both the same height. Paul says he is inches shorter than t
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Theresa is 58.82 in tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 

x----------> Paul and Steve heights

y----------> Theresa height


we know that

1 1/2-------> 3/2---> 1.5

1 1/3-------> 4/3----> 1.33

 Paul says he is 16 inches shorter than 1 1/2 times Theresa's height

x=1.5y-16-------> equation 1


Steve says he's 6 inches shorter than 1 1/3 times Theresa's height

x=1.33y-6------> equation 2


equals 1 and 2

1.5y-16=1.33y-6

1.5y-1.33y=-6+16

0.17y=10----------> y=58.82 in


x=1.5y-16------> 1.5*(58.82)-16------> x=72.24 in


the answer is

Theresa is 58.82 in tall
