What is the missing numerator?

Mathematics
1 answer:
N76 [4]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

As with any other addition fact problem, you can isolate the unknown term by subtracting the unwanted constant.

  5/7 +x/6 = 51/42

  x/6 = 51/42 -5/7 . . . . . subtract 5/7 from both sides

  x/6 = 51/42 -30/42 = 21/42 = 1/2 . . . . . complete the subtraction

  x = 6(1/2) = 3 . . . . . . . . multiply by 6

The missing numerator is 3.

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

Multiply the equation by 42:

  30 +7x = 51

  7x = 51 -30 = 21 . . . . . subtract 30

  x = 21/7 = 3 . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Can someone tell me the answer to both of these
omeli [17]

Answer:

First question --> C) 8.5h

Second question --> D) 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First question

Terry earns $10 per hour

Jill earns 20% less which is $2 less

Jill earns $8 per hour

Jerry earns $0.50 more per hour than Jill

Jerry earns $8.50 per hour

Second question

x = 2

y = 4

(2x + 3y) / 4 - 2 = ?

Use PEMDAS

so Parentheses first, then divide, then subtract

So.... (2x + 3y) = (2*2 + 3*4) = (4 + 12) = 16

Then divide

16/4 = 4

Then subtract

4 - 2 = 2
