Find the solution of 2/3x+1/4=-4/3

These questions can be daunting at first, but they're pretty simple to solve.

First, we need to establish a common denominator.  We have 2 / 3, 1 / 4, and
-4 / 3.  The least common denominator we can get is by multiplying 4 and 3 together to get 12.  So we will change the denominator as follows;

2 / 3, 1 / 4, -4 / 3  =  8 / 12, 3 / 12, -16 / 12

Now we can put these back into the equation.

8/12x + 3/12 = -16/12
8x + 3 = -16

It's simple math from here on out, but I'll show the process.  What we can basically do now is take away the denominator because it doesn't matter now that it's common.

Subtract 3 from both sides.  Now we have 8x = -19

Dividing by 8 on both sides of the equation will get you your answer.

x = -19/8


Hope this helps!

Assuming log, 4.4 = 1.4816 and log 7.7 = 2.0142, then whats the value of log, 7/4
denis23 [38]
Log (7/4) is equivalent to log (7.7/4.4), therefore it's log(7.7) - log(4.4), or...

2.0142 - 1.4816 = 0.5326

Kathi and Robert Hawn had a pottery stand at the annual Skippack Craft Fair. They sold some of their pottery at the original pri
grigory [225]

Answer:27 pieces were sold at the original price.

63 pieces were sold at the new price

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the original price.

Let y represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the new price.

They sold some of their pottery at the original price of​ $9.50 for each​ piece. This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the original price would be 9.5x

They later decreased the price of each piece by​ $2. This means that the new price was 9.5 - 2 = $7.5

This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the new price would be 7.5y

If they sold all 90 pieces and took in ​$729​, then the equations are

x + y = 90

9.5x + 7.5y = 729 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 90 - y into equation 1, it becomes

9.5(90 - y) + 7.5y = 729

855 - 9.5y + 7.5y = 729

- 9.5y + 7.5y = 729 - 855

- 2y = - 126

y = - 126/- 2 = 63

Substituting y = 63 into x = 90 - y, it becomes

x = 90 - 63 = 27

Solve the system:<br> y = 3x<br> -x + 2y=5<br><br> (_,_)
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

(5, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + 6x = 5

5x = 5

x = 5

y = 3 (5)

y = 15

You can substitute 6x for 2y because it says y = 3x. So 2y is gonna be 6x because you have to multiply it by 2 since it's 2y not just y.
