$55,000 - $10,000 = $45,000
$55 - $15 = $40
$45,000 ÷ $40 = 1,125
So, your answer is 1,125

(2m)/(2m+3)-(2m)/(2m-3)=1
Simplifying the left hand first
(2m)/(2m+3)-(2m)/(2m-3) = {2m(2m-3) - 2m(2m+3)}/(4m²-9)
(4m²-6m-4m²-6m)/(4m²-9)
= (-12m) / (4m²-9)
Now this equet to 1
(-12m) / (4m²-9) = 1
-12m = 4m²-9
4m²+ 12m -9 =0 ⇒⇒⇒ This is a quadratic equation that has 2 real solutions.
4m²+ 12m -9 =0
m² + 3m + (3/2)²= 9/4 + 9/4
(m + 3/2)² = 18/4
m = √18/2 - 3/2 or m = -√18/2 - 3/2
= 0.621 = -3.621
So we can say that the equation has NO extraneous solutions.
Answer = 0
Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
total ratio is 15
gallons of red =
gallons of yellow
gallons of blue
total =144+30+6
=180
X = 3
2(4x - 3) - 8 = 4 + 2x
1. Distribute
8x - 6 - 8 = 4 + 2x
2. Collect like terms
8x - 14 = 4 + 2x
3. Collect like terms again (add 14 and subtract 2x)
6x = 18
4. Divide by 6
x = 3
