Answer:

✅⅓(x - 5) = -⅔

✅distribute ⅓

✅x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

The difference of a number and 5 ==> x - 5

⅓ times the difference of a number and 5 equals -⅔, would be expressed as:

✅⅓(x - 5) = -⅔

✔️To solve for x, one possible first step is to distribute ⅓.

Thus,

⅓x - ⁵/3 = -⅔

Add ⁵/3 to both sides

⅓x = -⅔ + ⁵/3

⅓x = (-2 + 5)/3

⅓x = ³/3

⅓x = 1

Multiply both sides by 3

x = 3

Nastasia [14]
During the 9 mile hike he  spends 2 periods of half hour swimming  = 1 hour.  
actual hiking time  = 3*3 = 9 hours

So total time = 9+1 = 10 hours

The product of two positive numbers is 48. the larger number is 13 more than the smaller. Find both numbers [Only an algebraic s
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Larger number:

16

Smaller number

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Larger number: 16

Smaller number: 3

Explanation:

Suppose the larger number is

a

and the smaller number is

b

.

You solve the following system of equations:

a⋅b=48

a−13=b

Since b is a −13, you can plug that into a⋅b=48, so...a⋅(a−13)=48

a 2−13a=48

a2−13a−48=0

Factor the polynomial:

(a−16)(a+3)=0

a=16 or a=−3a is positive so a=16.

We can now solve for b by plugging in a, so...16−13=b3=b We have a=16 and b=3, meaning that the larger number is 16 and the smaller number is 3.
