One eighth is less than one seventh

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serjik [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that 1/8 is less than 1/7, the easiest way to do is convert it to decimals

1/8 = 0.125

1/7 = 0.14285714285 (Estimated - 0.14)

0.14 is a larger number than 0.125, therefore 1/8 is less than 1/7

3(x - 2) + 48 = -3x
kow [346]

Answer: X=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PEMDAS;

Step 1: Distribute the "3" in the part of the equation "3(x-2)"

3x - 6

Step 2: Consider the equation as a whole with the newly part of the equation from step 1, as it is a part of the equation

Therefore, re-written as,

3x - 6 + 48 = -3x

Step 3: Evaluate the re-written equation

Using basic mathematics skills, we can evaluate the following,

3x - 6 + 48 = -3x ➡ -6 + 48 = -6x ➡ 42 = -6x ➡ -7 = x

As shown, the answer is x=-7.
