Answer:

x = -24

Step-by-step explanation: Please brainliest!

Subtract 1/3 from both sides of the equation.

x/12 + 1/3 = 5/3

x/12 + 1/3 - 1/3 = -5/3 - 1/3

-----------------------------------------------------------

Simplify and subtract the numbers.

x/12 = 2

-----------------------------------------------------------

Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators.

x/12 = -2

12 . x/12 = 12 (-2)

------------------------------------------------------------

Cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator.

12 . x/12 = 12 (-2)

x = 12 (-2)

------------------------------------------------------------

Multiply the numbers.

x = 12 (-2)

x = -24

Answer:

x=-24

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{12} +\frac{1}{3} =-\frac{5}{3}=\frac{x}{12}

Subtract 1/3 from both sides;

\frac{x}{12} +\frac{1}{3} -\frac{1}{3} =-\frac{5}{3}-\frac{1}{3}

Simplify;

\frac{x}{12} +\frac{1}{3} -\frac{1}{3} =-\frac{5}{3}-\frac{1}{3}

Simplify;

\frac{x}{12} +\frac{1}{3} -\frac{1}{3}

Add similar elements;\frac{1}{3} -\frac{1}{3} =0

=\frac{x}{12}

Simplify; -\frac{5}{3} -\frac{1}{3}

=\frac{-5-1}{3}

Subtract the numbers;-5-1=-6

\frac{-6}{3}

Apply fraction rule;

-\frac{6}{3}

Divide the numbers \frac{6}{3}

=-2

\frac{x}{12} =-2

Multiply both sides by 12

\frac{12x}{12} =12(-2)

Simplify;

x=-24

Please help i have exam tom. ​
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a simultaneous equation question

f(1)=8  so  a(1) + b = 8

f(4)=17 so a(4) + b = 17

can you figure this out from here ???

if you can't below is how to solve it

a + b = 8

4a+b=17

multiply the top equation by 4 and then subtract the bottom one from the top

4a+4b = 32

-(4a +b = 17)

3b = 15

b=5

now plug 5 into the first equation

a + 5 = 8

a=3

there you go :)

Lin has 13 coins in her pocket that equal 40 cents. All the coins are dimes, d, and pennies, p. Which combination of coins does
Luden [163]
To answer this question you should begin with the coin that has a higher value.  If you start with the dime and then just add the correct number of pennies to total $0.40, you will see that you will need 3 dimes ($0.30) and 10 pennies ($0.10).  

I used a guess and check strategy starting with 2 dimes.
