Three less than three times a number is 5/6. What is one more than twice the number

Mathematics
1 answer:
dimaraw [331]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

32/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Translating the word problem into a symbolic equation yields:

3n - 3 = 5/6

Solve this for the number (n):

Multiplying both sides of this equation by 6 clears out the fraction term:

18n - 18 = 5

Adding 18 to both sides isolates 18n:    18n = 23

Then the number is n = 23/18, and:

one more than twice this number n is 2(23/18) + 1, or:

46/18 + 18/18, or 64/18, or (reducing this result)

32/9

The larger of two consecutive integers is 10 more than 4 times the smaller. Find the integers.
nevsk [136]

Answer:

-2 and -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the large integer and S represent the smaller integer

Given  Large Integer = 10 + 4 times Smaller Integer

Mathematically:

L = 10 + 4S -------eq 1

It is also given that the integers are consecutive,

hence L = S + 1------ eq2

Now we can solve a system of equations by substitution.

Substitute eq 2 into eq 1

S + 1 = 10 + 4S    (subtract 1 from both sides)

S = 10 - 1 + 4S

S = 9 + 4S  (subtract 4S from both sides)

S - 4S = 9

-3S = 9 (divide both sides by -3)

S = 9 / (-3) = -3  (answer)

form equation 2,

L = S + 1

L = -3 + 1

L = -2 (answer)
