16/3x-4 = 5/x

16x = 5(3x - 4)

16x = 15x - 20

16x - 15x = -20

x = -20

Can someone help me?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the width is \frac{1}{3} of the length, then

y - 4 = \frac{1}{3}(2y + 6)

Multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction

3y - 12 = 2y + 6 ( subtract 2y from both sides )

y - 12 = 6 ( add 12 to both sides )

y = 18

Thus

length = 2y + 6 = 2(18) + 6 = 36 + 6 = 42 in

width = y - 4 = 18 - 4 = 14 in

Find 2x2 − 2z4 + y2 − x2 + z4 if x = −4, y = 3, and z = 2.<br><br> Is -3 the correct answer?
Ket [755]
We're given the algebraic expression 2x^2 - 2z^4 + y^2 - x^2 + z^4

By hypothesis, x = -4, y = 3 and z = 2

Let's replace each letter by its given value:

2x^2 - 2z^4 + y^2 - x^2 + z^4
2(-4)^2 - 2(2)^4 + (3)^2 - (-4)^2 + (2)^4
(2*16) - 2*16 + 9 - 16 + 16
32 - 32 + 9 - 16 + 16
9

So wrong. The correct answer is not -3, but 9.

Hope this helps! :D

In a college parking lot, the number of ordinary cars is larger than the number of sport utility vehicles by 42.9%. the differen
fenix001 [56]
Let
 x = number of common cars
 y = number of suvs
 we can write the following system of equations
 x-y = 12
 x = 1.429y
 Solving the system we have
 x-y = 12
 1.429y-y = 12
 and (1,429-1) = 12
 y = (12) / (1,429-1) = 27.97202797
 then,
 x = 1429 * (27.97202797)
 x = 39.97202797
 answer
 The number of suvs in the parking lot is 28

mariarad [96]

Answer:

7 1/17 shifts

Step-by-step explanation:

That would be 7 1/2 divided by 1 1/16

=  15/2 / 17/16

= 15/2 * 16/17

= 15 * 8  /  17

=  120/17

= 7  1/17  shifts
