How can you get equation b from equation A. 3(x+2)=18 B. X+2=18

Mathematics

Rzqust [24]2 years ago

Answer:

We start with the equation:

A: 3*(x + 2) = 18

And we want to construct equation B:

B: X + 2 = 18

where I suppose that X is different than x.

Because in both equations the right side is the same thing, then the left side also should be the same thing, this means that:

3*(x + 2) = X + 2

Now we can isolate the variable x.

(x + 2) = (X + 2)/3

x = (X + 2)/3 - 2

Then we need to replace x by  (X + 2)/3 - 2 in equation A, and we will get equation B.

Let's do it:

A: 3*(x + 2) = 18

Now we can replace x by =  (X + 2)/3 - 2

3*( (X + 2)/3 - 2 + 2) = 18

3*(  (X + 2)/3 ) = 18

3*(X + 2)/3 = 18

(X + 2) = 18

Which is equation B.

At the Science Museum, there is an exhibition with 150 displays about energy.
tatuchka [14]
<span>1/5
       
This is a matter of elimination. So let's figure out how many of each display there is. 30% of 150 = 0.30 * 150 = 45 displays about electricity. 2/5 * 150 = 0.40 * 150 = 60 displays about renewable energy 1/10 * 150 = 150/10 = 15 displays about gas. The rest of the displays are about nuclear power. So 150 - 45 - 60 - 15 = 30 displays about nuclear power. Since we want a fraction, we get 30/150 But 30/150 isn't in it's simplest form. The largest number that will evenly divide both 30 and 150 is 30. So divide both the numerator and denominator by 30 (30/30)/(150/30) = 1/5 So 1/5 of the displays are about nuclear power.</span>

to find the product 3 3/8 * 4 1/9.tara rewrote 3 3/8 as 17/8 amd 4 1/9 as 13/9. she multiplies the fractions to find the product
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The error Tara made is she rewrote incorrectly 3 3/8 as 17/8 and 4 1/9 as 13/9,

the corrected number can be rewrote as 3 3/8 as 27/8 and 4 1/9 as 37/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the Product of:

3\frac{3}{8}\times 4\frac{1}{9}

The Number can be rewrote as,

\frac{3\times8+3}{8}\times \frac{4\times9+1}{9}\\\\\frac{24+3}{8}\times \frac{36+1}{9}\\\\\frac{27}{8}\times \frac{37}{9}

Tara made error here she rewrote the number incorrectly 3 3/8 as 17/8 amd 4 1/9 as 13/9.

Now multiplying the fraction we get

\frac{999}{72}

Because she rewrote incorrectly which led her answer to multiplication of fraction, the product too was incorrect which she wrote as 221/72.
