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

Solve using elimination. -2x + y = 1 -6x - y = -9<br> HELP
laiz [17]

Answer:

(x,y) = (8,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

 [2]    x = y + 15

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

[1]    (y +15) + y = 1

[1]    2y = -14

Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

[1]    2y = - 14

[1]    y = - 7  By now we know this much :

x = y+15

y = -7

// Use the  y  value to solve for  x

x = (-7)+15 = 8

Solution :

{x,y} = {8,-7}

What is 5 3/8 as a inproper fracon and as a mixed number
ICE Princess25 [194]

\frac{53}{8}
To divide 53 by 8 wont be possible so u find a number that when you multiply by 8 it gives u a number closer to 58 which is 8*6=48 i.e 53 divided by 8 is 6 rem, then to get the reminder you subtract 42 from 53 i.e 53–48=5 so the final answer will be 6 and 5/6

I need help . This problem is confusing me.<br><br>​
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The answer is 3093.

3093 (if that series you posted actually does stop at 1875; there were no dots after, right?)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a finite series.

We know the first term is 48.

We know the last term is 1875.

What are the terms in between?

Since the terms of the series form a geometric sequence, all you have to do to get from one term to another is multiply by the common ratio.

The common ratio be found by choosing a term and dividing that term by it's previous term.

So 120/48=5/2 or 2.5.

The first term of the sequence is 48.

The second term of the sequence is 48(2.5)=120.

The third term of the sequence is 48(2.5)(2.5)=300.

The fourth term of the sequence is 48(2.5)(2.5)(2.5)=750.

The fifth term of the sequence is 48(2.5)(2.5)(2.5)(2.5)=1875.

So we are done because 1875 was the last term.

This just becomes a simple addition problem of:

48+120+300+750+1875

168      +   1050  +1875

          1218          +1875

                         3093
