Answer:

The number is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's translate the statement into an equation.

4x = 2x - 6

Step 1: Subtract 2x from both sides.

$4x-2x=2x-6-2x$
$2x=-6$

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

$2x/2 = -6/2$
$x=-3$

Therefore, the number is -3/

Mathematics help please!!!!!!!!!<br><br> what is -0.0833333333333 converted into a fraction?

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

- 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let -0.0833333 = x --- (1)

Multiply both sides by 10.

-0.833333 = 10x --- (2)

Subtract (2) from (1),

0.75 = -9x

-9x = $\frac{75}{100}$

= $\frac{3}{4}$

$x=-\frac{3}{36}$

$x=-\frac{1}{12}$

Solve for x. 1/2x + 3 = 2/3x + 1

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{2}$ x + 3 = $\frac{2}{3}$ x + 1

multiply through by 6 ( the LCM of 2 and 3 ) to clear the fractions

3x + 18 = 4x + 6 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

18 = x + 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

12 = x
