21/506

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{9}{24} x\frac{8}{23}x \frac{7}{22}$ then you can simplify which gets you 21/506. Hope this helps :)

Suppose that y varies directly with x, and y=15 when x=24. Write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. Find y when x

Lapatulllka [165]

Just set up a proportion with the original numbers and then the numbers you want to find like so: (x1/y1)=(x2/y2) and since you want to find the second y value, just leave y as a variable like so: (15/24)=(3/y) after this just cross multiply and get the answer: 15y=72.....y=4.8

4 less than half a number is equal to 2 more than the number

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

$-12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let that number be $x$ . We can build an equation, and solve for $x$ .

$4$ less than half of $x$ is $x/2-4$ .

$2$ more than $x$ is $x+2$ .

We are given that the two quantities are equal, so we have that $x/2-4=x+2$ .

Adding $4$ to both sides gives $x/2=x+6$ .

Multiplying both sides by $2$ gives $x=2(x+6)=2x+12$ .

Subtracting $2x$ from both sides gives $-x=12$ .

Multiplying both sides by $-1$ gives $x=-12$ .

So, the number is $\boxed{-12}$ and we're done!

The check is left as an exercise to the reader.

To complete this component you will need to insert parentheses in Expression 2 to change the order of operations so the expressi

Alika [10]

Given:

The expression is $5+4\times 2+6-2\times 2-1$ .

To find:

The position of parentheses inserted in the expression to get the value 19

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

$5+4\times 2+6-2\times 2-1$

Now,

$(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1=9\times 2+6-4-1$

$(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1=18+6-5$

$(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1=18+1$

$(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1=19$

There are more ways to apply the parenthesis, but we do not get 19.

$5+4*\left(2+6\right)-2*2-1=32\neq 19$

$5+4*2+\left(6-2\right)*2-1=20\neq 19$

$5+4*2+6-2*\left(2-1\right)=17\neq 19$

And many more possibilities.

Therefore, the expression after inserting the parentheses is $(5+4)\times 2+6-2\times 2-1$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

because u cant be wrong with going with none of the above due the fact that they could be decimals and they didn't want to write out the full number therefore making it incorrect. No need to thank me.
