We have to simplify this as a product of fractions. Notice that the 6 has a negative sign, therefore, the result will be negative. We have then:
therefore, the simplified result is -2
Answer:
Yes, because by dividing x by his equivalent y, you find a constant of proportionality being 10.
x / y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
20 / 2 = 10
50 / 5 =10
60 / 6 = 10
70 / 7 = 10
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/2 + x = 5 1/3 Change the mixed numbers to improper fractions
5/2 + x = 16/3 The lowest common multiple is 6. Multiply by 6
5*3 + 6x = 16*2
15 + 6x = 32 Subtract 15 from both sides.
6x = 32 - 15
6x = 17 Divide by 6
6x/6 = 17/6
x = 2 5/6
Check
5/2 + 17/6 = 16/3
15/6 + 17/6 = 32/6
32/6 = 32/6 The question checks.
