Mathematics

4 0

Answer:

\frac{1}{15} x

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7x}{20}  -  \frac{5x}{12}

\frac{3 \times 7x}{3 \times 20}  -  \frac{5 \times 5x}{5 \times 12}

\frac{21x}{60}  -  \frac{25x}{60}

\frac{21x - 25x}{60}  = (21 - 25)x =  - 4x

\frac{ - 4x}{60}  =  -  \frac{ x}{15}

\boxed{\green{=  \frac{1}{15} x}}

Solve on y: 3y+5/2y+1 = 2/6​
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 3y + -2y = -1 + 2y + -2y

Combine like terms: 3y + -2y = 1y

-5 + 1y = -1 + 2y + -2y

Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0

-5 + 1y = -1 + 0

-5 + 1y = -1

Add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 1y = -1 + 5

Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 1y = -1 + 5

1y = -1 + 5

Combine like terms: -1 + 5 = 4

1y = 4

Divide each side by '1'.

y = 4

Simplifying

y = 4

gina pasted 3 stickers in a book. if she added one sticker to her collection every day, what equation represents the relationshi
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is

                       Number of stickers = number of days + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

- To find the equation of the line that represents the situation, first, find the slope.

Slope = m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

             m = \frac{4 - 3}{1 - 0} = \frac{1}{1} = 1

- Find the equation of the line

                      y - y1 = m(x - x1)

                      y - 4 = 1(x - 1)

                      y - 4 = x - 1

                           y = x - 1 + 4

                           y = x + 3

y = number of stickers

x = days

                     Number of stickers = number of days + 3
