Answer:

-34/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5/6=-4/(x+2)

5/6(x+2)=-4

5/6x+10/6=-4

5/6x=-4-10/6

5/6x=-4-5/3

5/6x=-12/3-5/3

5/6x=-17/3

x=(-17/3)/(5/6)

x=(-17/3)(6/5)

x=-34/5

Make g the subject p=5gh

balandron [24]

When rearranging or transposing an equation, you always have to try and get the letter you want on its own by doing the opposite of each step on both sides. In this case it is g:

p= 5gh

Because g is being multiplied by 5 and h, you'd want to divide by 5 and h to get g on its own: (division is represented by the slashes / ).

p= 5gh/5h

Now you can cross off 5h completely from the right side of the equation because they cancel out.

p/5h = g

Because you did that, you have to do it on the other side too so that is why it is P/5h on the left.

So g = p divided by 5h.

Hope that helped!!!

Peter is reading a 193-page book. he has read three pages more than one-fourth of the number of pages he hasn't yet read. how ma

exis [7]

Let's call the number of pages we have read $m$ . To find the number of pages we have left to read, we'll need to subtract the number of pages we've read from the total number of pages in the book. Our total page count is 193, and the number of pages we've read is the unknown $m$ , so the number of pages we haven't read can be written as $193-m$ . With that knowledge, let's construct the rest of our equation.

"He has read three pages more than one-fourth of the number of pages he hasn't yet read." The first key phrase here is "he has read." What this means is that the number of pages he's read, which we've named $m$ , is equal to everything in the rest of the sentence. "Thee pages more than" means that we're going to be adding 3 to whatever the next quantity described is, which, in this case, is "one-fourth of the number of pages he hasn't yet read." We already established earlier that "the number of pages he hasn't yet read" is $193-m$ , so one-fourth of that would be $\frac{1}{4} (193-m)$ . Putting everything together, we get the following equation:

$m= \frac{1}{4} (193-m)+3$

To solve for $m$ , we might first want to eliminate the fraction 1/4 by multiplying both sides of the equation by 4, obtaining

$4m=193-m+12$

Solving for m, we get:

$4m=193+12-m\\5m=205\\m=41$

Now that we have m, it's a simple matter to solve for $193-m$ :

$193-41=152$

So, he has not yet read 152 pages.
