1/4 + 1/2 + x = −3/4
get a common denominator 1/4
1/4 +2/4 +x = -3/4
combine like terms
3/4 +x =-3/4
subtract 3/4 from each side
x = -3/4 -3/4
x = -6/4
divide top and bottom by 2
x = -3/2
x = -1 1/2
Answer : x = -1 1/2
The given equations are:
5x - 2y = 88
3x + 4y = 58
Multiplying the 1st equation by 2, we get the new set of equations as:
10x - 4y = 176
3x + 4y = 58
Adding the two equations, we get:
10x - 4y + 3x + 4y = 176 + 58
13x =234
x = 18
Using the value of x in 1st equation, we get:
5(18) - 2y = 88
- 2y = 88 -5(18)
-2y = -2
y = 1
So, the solution of the equation is (18, 1)
450 g in 2:13
<u>Total proportion asked for </u>=2+13=15
<u>Now comparing g with ratio, or whatever </u>
450/15=30g 
Therefore 1 in ratio depicts of 30g
So final answer = 
More to know, daily bit of knowledge: The Binomial Theorem:
Answer: 15 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Total cost of TV = $252, Savings= $87. So, she will require, $252-$87 = $165 to buy TV.
Also, it's given that, she gets paid $11 per hour.
Therefore, she will require 165/11 hours = 15 hours to buy new Tv at the wage rate of $11/ hour.
Your answer would be line DC or a have a nice day!
