To solve an equation with a rational (fraction) coefficient you need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal (invert the fraction - flip it).
The reciprocal of 1/6 is 6/1 or 6
The product of reciprocals equals 1
1x = 24
x = 24
3 possible solutions.
The reason is because of the degree, which is 3
I just answered this.... :]
x - 0.05x = 57,
0.95x = 57,
57/0.95 = original price
Original price = $60
Solution,
y = -x-4......(i)
3x + y =- 16.......(ii)
Now,
Substituting the value of y in equation (ii)
or, 3x + (-x-4)= -16
or,3x - x - 4 = -16
or, 2x= -16 +4
or, x = -12/2
: x = -6
Then,
Substituting the value of x in (i) equation;
or,y= -(-6) - 4
or,y= 6 - 4
: y =2
