How can x minus two-thirds = StartFraction 5 over 6 EndFraction be solved for x in one step?

Mathematics

Add Two-thirds to both sides

solution:

x-2/3= 5/6

We have to find how this can be solved for "x" in one step

Remember that,

We we add or subtract same number from both sides of a equation, the equation still remains true

Therefore, from given,

x-2/3=5/6

Add Two-thirds to both sides

x-2/3+2/3=5/6+2/3

x=5/6+2/3

x=9/6

Add Two-thirds to both sides to solve the sum

The base of a triangle is twelvetwelve more than twice its height. if the area of the triangle is 4545 square​ centimeters, find
mr Goodwill [35]
In order to begin we must start off with the formula for the area of a triangle, which is a=1/2b(h) where a is area, b is base, and h is height.

In this scenario, we know that the area is 45cm^2 and the base is 2h+12 (since it is twice it’s height plus twelve). We can plug this into the area equation and then proceed to solve out accordingly.
a=1/2b(h)
45=1/2(2h+12)(h)
90=(2h+12)(h)
90=2h^2 + 12h
0= 2h^2 + 12h - 90

Simplify by dividing the two out.

h^2 + 6h - 45 = 0.

Now plug into the quadratic formula (with a=1, b=6, and c=-45) as shown in the image below.

After plugging the equation in and solving, we come to the idea that h is roughly equal to 4.34. We can now plug this back into the triangle area formula to solve out for b.
a=1/2b(h)
45=1/2(2h + 12)(h)
45=1/2(20.69)(4.34)
45=45.

In conclusion;
The height is ≈ 4.34
The base is ≈ 8.68

Hope this helps :)

Find the distance between the points (13, 20) and (18, 8).
Jlenok [28]
Distance  = sqrt (13-18)^2 + (20-8)^2 )

               =   sqrt ( 5^2 + 12^2)

               =   sqrt 169   = 13
