1/2 + 3/x = 3/4
3/x = 3/4 - 1/2
3/x = 3/4 - 2/4
3/x = 1/4....this is a proportion, so we cross multiply
(1)(x) = (3)(4)
x = 12
check..
1/2 + 3/12 = 3/4
6/12 + 3/12 = 3/4
9/12 = 3/4
3/4 = 3/4 (correct)
so x = 12

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 tyres time to install is 56/4=14
which means it takes 14 minutes to install one tire.
so 12 tires would be 12 x 14 which is 168 minutes
A) 168 minutes
1 tire = 14 min
42 min/14 min=3
B) 3 tires
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(4x-4)+2x-4+4=-30+4
-4(4x-4)+2x=-26
-14x+16=-26
-14x+16-16=-26-16
-14x=-42
-14x/-14=-42/-14
x=3
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "a" represent the measure of the angle. Then ...
5a -30 = 2a +18
3a = 48 . . . . . . . add 30-2a
a = 16 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
An angel is beyond measure, but this angle has measure 16.
