The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6
Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.
5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6
Then, simplify
65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
Finn has 1/2 cups more, if you get the common denominator Finn has 1 8/10 and Aidan has 1 3/10 then you subtract
Answer:
the answer is 9 ft 12in here is a simple formula to find how many inches are In a yard
1 yard = 24 inches and half of 24 equals 12
Use the Cosine Rule
q^2 = 20^2 + 30^2 - 2^20*30 cos 15
= 140.89
so q = sqrt 140.89 = 11.9 (answer)
Answer:
The coordinates are (50, 103)
Step-by-step explanation:
The three hallways are AB, BC, CD.
The co-ordinate of D is (50, 75).
The school's flagpole is 28 meters right of the point D.
Hence the y-coordinate for the flagpole will be same as D, that is 75.
The x-coordinate will be (28 + 75) = 103.
The location of the school's flagpole will be represented by (50, 103)
