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

Mathematics

grigory [225]3 years ago

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}

damaskus [11]

Answer: 142.5\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is attached (which is based on the description given)

Notice that you can divide it into two figures: a rectangle and a triangle.

The area of a rectangle can be found with this formula:

A_r=lw

Where "l" is the length and "w" is the width.

In this case:

l=15\ ft\\w=7\ ft

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is:

A_r=(15\ ft)(7\ ft)\\\\A_r=105\ ft^2

The area of a triangle  can be calculated with the following formula:

A_t=\frac{bh}{2}

Where "b" is the base and "h" is the height.

In this case, you can identify that:

b=15\ ft\\h=12\ ft-7\ ft=5\ ft

Therefore, substituting values and evaluating, you get:

A_t=\frac{(15\ ft)(5\ ft)}{2}\\\\A_t=37.5\ ft^2

Finally, you must add the areas calculated above, in order to find the area of the wall. This is:

A_w=105\ ft^2+37.5\ ft^2\\\\A_w=142.5\ ft^2
