Change the mixed leading number into an improper fraction...a b/c=(ac+b)/c
19/7-7/8 the least common multiple of the denominators is 56 so:
(19/7)(8/8)-(7/8)(7/7)
(152-49)/56
103/56 now we can change back into a mixed number...
(56+47)/56
1 47/56
Answer:
base = 15 units
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given area of a triangle = 52.5 sq. units
Height is given as 7 and we have to find the base.
Using formula for area of triangle:
Area of triangle = 


52.5 * 2 = base × 7
105 = base × 7
base = 15
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first two steps are for the purpose of eliminating fractions. Doing so results in 4(2x - 5) = 9(x - 2), which is to be solved for x.
Perform the indicated multiplication, obtaining:
8x - 20 = 9x - 18.
Then combine like terms: -2 = x, or
x = -2.
To complete the formal check, substitute -2 for x in the first equation. This results in:
(1/3)(-4 - 5) = (3/4)(-2 -2), or
-3 = -3
... which is obviously true.
