-7/8 - (-h) = -7/12 solve for h pls show work

Mathematics
1 answer:
Westkost [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer is 7/24.

Step-by-step explanation:

I attached a picture, but I'll try to walk through it here.

1) A negative and a negative makes a positive, so h becomes positive.

2) I added 7/8 to both sides, in order to "isolate the variable", which simply means to get h by itself, on one side of the equation (you'll likely hear it said both ways).

3) I multiplied 7/8 by 3/3, and multiplied -7/12 by 2/2. This is known as a common denominator, which in this case is 24. You can only add and subtract fractions that have a common denominator.

4) Multiply both of the fractions to get 21/24 + (-14/24). "Adding a negative" is the same thing as subtracting.

5) 21 - 14 = 7, and since our denominators are the same, the answer is 7/24.

You can confirm the answer by substituting, or "plugging" 7/24 into your original equation, in place of h.

Kimora’s cell phone company charges her $35 a month for phone service plus $.05 for each text message sent. How many text messag
professor190 [17]

Given that Kimora’s cell phone company charges her $35 a month for phone service plus $.05 for each text message sent.

Kimora's cell phone bill for one month is $52.

We need to determine the number of text messages Kimora sent for one month.

Also, we need to write and equation and solve it.

<u>The equation:</u>

Let x denote the number of text messages Kimora sent for one month.

Thus, the equation is given by

35+0.05x=52

Therefore, the equation for the number of text messages Kimora sent for one month is 35+0.05x=52

<u>Solving the equation:</u>

We need to solve the equation 35+0.05x=52

Subtracting both sides of the equation by 35, we get;

0.05x=17

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.05, we get;

x=340

Therefore, the number of messages sent is 340.

What's (7x/2-5x+3)+(2x/2+4x-6)
Anika [276]
I'm assuming that when you wrote "(7x/2-5x+3)+(2x/2+4x-6)," you actually meant "<span>(7x^2-5x+3)+(2x^2+4x-6).  Correct me if I'm wrong here.

</span><span>+(7x^2-5x+3)

The length of a quarter is 0.953 inch. round the length of a quarter to the nearest tenth of an inch
liraira [26]

Answer:

1 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

The 9 is in the tenths place so you look to the hundredths place and if the number is greater than or equal to 5 then the 9 can round up.

The hundredths place is 5 so the 9 rounds up and since it can not round up in the tenths place you put the rounding in the front so the answer is 1 inch.

(m 5/6) (m1/6) ^7 = m^x
nadezda [96]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the value of x

(m^5/6)(m^1/6)^7 = m^x

= (m^5/6)(m^7/6) = m^x

Using the law of indices for power multiplication

m^(5/6 + 7/6) = m^x

m^(12/6) = m^x

m^2 = m^x

we simply equate the powers in this case since the base are equal

Thus we have

x = 2
