Solve the following equation:m - m-1/2 = 1 - m-2/3​

Mathematics
1 answer:
grigory [225]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

m = \frac{7}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

m - \frac{m-1}{2} = 1 - \frac{m-2}{3}

Multiply through by 6 ( the LCM of 2 and 3 ) to clear the fractions

6m - 3(m - 1) = 6 - 2(m - 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

6m - 3m + 3 = 6 - 2m + 4 , that is

3m + 3 = - 2m + 10 ( add 2m to both sides )

5m + 3 = 10 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

5m = 7 ( divide both sides by 5 )

m = \frac{7}{5}

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

8x = 136

Where: x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Joshua is writing a novel. He wrote the same number of pages each day for a 8 days. At the end of 8 days he had 136 pages complete. Write an equation relating x, the number of days, to y, the total pages.

Let the number of pages read per day = x

Hence, the number of pages after 8 days = 8 × x = 8x

Total number of pages = y= 136

Therefore:an equation relating x, the number of days, to y, the total pages.

= 136 = 8x

Solving for x

136/8 = x

x = 17
