Answer:

The answer would be 3.33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying 12x + 5 = 3x + 35

Reorder the terms: 5 + 12x = 3x + 35

Reorder the terms: 5 + 12x = 35 + 3x

Solving 5 + 12x = 35 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation. 5 + 12x + -3x = 35 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 12x + -3x = 9x 5 + 9x = 35 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0 5 + 9x = 35 + 0 5 + 9x = 35

Add '-5' to each side of the equation. 5 + -5 + 9x = 35 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0 0 + 9x = 35 + -5 9x = 35 + -5

Combine like terms: 35 + -5 = 30 9x = 30

Divide each side by '9'. x = 3.333333333

Simplifying x = 3.333333333

Answer:

3 3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion a mixed number 8 1/2

to a improper fraction: 8 1/2=8×2+1/2=16+1/2=17/2

To find a new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 2 by the denominator 3. Whole number 2 equally 2×3/3= 6/

b) Add the answer from previous step 6 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 6 + 2 = 8

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 8) over the denominator 3.

Two and two thirds is eight thirds

Divide: 17/2×8/3=17/2×3/8=17×3/2×8= 51/

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 8/3 is 3/8) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - seventeen halves divided by eight thirds = fifty-one sixteenths.

A square has an area of 64 square units. A cube has a volume of 64 cubic units. What is the difference in the side length of the

Rina8888 [55]

The formula in solving the area of a square is Area = a² where "a" is for the length of the side. The area formula in solving a cube is Area = 6a² where "a" is for the length of its side.
Area of square = a²
64 = a²
a = 8 units

Area of cube = 6a²
64= 6a²
a = 3.27 units

The difference of side of the square and side of the cube is shown below:
Difference = 8 - 3.27
Difference = 4.73 units.

The answer is 4.73 units.
