what is the answer to 1 - 2/3y = 6/15

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps also if you download photomath it really helps. :)

Answer 2

1 - 2/3y = 6/15   Isolate/get y by itself, first subtract 1 on both sides

-2/3y = 6/15 - 1       [to combine fractions, they need to have the same denominator]

-2/3y = 6/15 - 15/15

-2/3y = -9/15        Multiply the inverse of -2/3, which is -3/2 on both sides to get y by itself

y = 27/30      Simplify

y = 9/10

x/3 = 14 whats the answer

Answers

Answer: x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           x

Simplify   —

           3

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 x    

 — -  14  = 0  

 3    

Step  2  :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

2.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  3  as the denominator :

         14     14 • 3

   14 =  ——  =  ——————

         1        3    

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

x - (14 • 3)     x - 42

————————————  =  ——————

     3             3    

Equation at the end of step  2  :

 x - 42

 ——————  = 0  

   3    

Step  3  :

When a fraction equals zero :

3.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 x-42

 ———— • 3 = 0 • 3

  3  

Now, on the left hand side, the  3  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  x-42  = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

3.2      Solve  :    x-42 = 0  

Add  42  to both sides of the equation :  

                     x = 42

Your answer: x = 42

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

x / 3 = 14.

The question required you to solve for x.

First, multiply both the LHS and the RHS by 3. The aim is to make x independent.

x/3 * 3 = 14 * 3

Therefore:

x = 42

A square and a circle are used as sample designs for a tiling project. The length of an edge of a square is two times the length of the radius of a circle.

Find the ratio of the area of the circle to the area of square using the given radii.

Select either Choice 'A' or Choice 'B'

Answers

For radius x, Choice 'A' π/4 is the correct answer.

For radius 10x, Choice 'B' π/4 is the correct answer.

For radius 100x, Choice 'B' π/4 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of the circle = πr^2, where "r" is the length of the radius.

The Area of square = a^2, where "a" is the length of an edge of a square.

CASE 1 :

Substitute radius r = x and edge length a = 2x,

Area of circle = π*x*x = πx^2

Area of square = 2x*2x = 4x^2

The ratio of the area of the circle to the area of square = πx^2 / 4x^2 = π/4

Choice 'A' π/4 is the correct answer.

CASE 2 :

Substitute radius r = 10x and edge length a = 20x,

Area of circle = π*10x*10x = 100πx^2

Area of square = 20x*20x = 400x^2

Ratio of the area of the circle to the area of square = 100πx^2 / 400x^2

                                                                                         = π/4

Choice 'B' π/4 is the correct answer.

CASE 3 :

Substitute radius r = 100x and edge length a = 200x,

Area of circle = π*100x*100x = 10000πx^2

Area of square = 200x*200x = 40000x^2

Ratio of area of the circle to the area of square = 10000πx^2 / 40000x^2

                                                                                  = π/4

Choice 'B' π/4 is the correct answer.

The variable is directly proportional to the variable . If y = 10 when x = 6, what is the value of y when x = 15?

Answers

Answer:

y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the quantities are proportional then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition y = 10 when x = 6

k = [tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

y = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] x ← equation of proportion

When x = 15, then

y = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] × 15 = 5 × 5 = 25

A puppy finds a rawhide bone and begins to pull it with a force, Ft. The free-body diagram is shown. A free body diagram with 4 force vectors. The first vector is pointing downward, labeled F Subscript g Baseline = negative 8 N. The second vector is pointing right, labeled F Subscript t Baseline = 6 N. The third vector is pointing upward, labeled F Subscript N Baseline = 8 N. The fourth vector is pointing left, labeled F Subscript f Baseline = negative 4 N. The up and down vectors are the same length. The right vector is longer than the left vector. Which describes what happens to the bone? It begins to move toward the right. It stays in static equilibrium. It stays in dynamic equilibrium. It begins to move toward the left.

Answers

Answer:

It begins to move toward the right

Explanation:

The given information can be summarized in this way:

First force vector: Fg = - 8N (vertical down)Second force vector: Ft = 6N (horizonal right)Third force vector: FN = 8N (vertical up)Fourth vector: Ff = - 4N (horizontal left)

Following Newton's second law, net force equal mass times acceleration:

Net force = mass × acceleration

To predict the motion, you apply Newton's second law in each direction (vertical and horizontal)

Vertical force balance:

        Net vertical force = 8N - 8N = 0. This means there is not motion in the vertical direction.

Horizontal force balance:

         Net horizontal force = 6N - 4N = 2N. This means there is a net force of 2N to the right, which lets you predict that the bone starts to accelerate to the right; this is, the bone begins to move toward the right.      

Answer:

A. It begins to move toward the right.

The difference between two numbers is 9. The first number plus twice the other number is 27. Find the two numbers.

Answers

Answer:

The two numbers are 15 and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The difference between two numbers is 9.

The first number plus twice the other number is 27.

Now, to find the two numbers.

Let the first number be [tex]x.[/tex]

And the other number be [tex]y.[/tex]

So, the difference between two numbers is 9.

[tex]x-y=9[/tex]

[tex]x=9+y[/tex]    ............(1)

As, given the first number plus twice the other number is 27.

According to question:

[tex]x+2y=27[/tex]

Substituting the value of [tex]x[/tex] from equation (1):

[tex](9+y)+2y=27\\9+y+2y=27\\9+3y=27[/tex]

Subtracting both sides by 9 we get:

[tex]3y=18[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 3 we get:

[tex]y=6.[/tex]

The other number = 6.

Now, substituting the value of [tex]y[/tex] in equation (1):

[tex]x=9+y\\x=9+6\\x=15.[/tex]

The first number = 15.

Therefore, the two numbers are 15 and 6.

Answer:

part A:

M = 4(2x + 6)

part B:

option 1) i think the x value is equal for both M and N since they have the value 8.

                                                                                                                               

option 2)  If you meant to solve M and N with an EQUATION then here's your answer:

8x+24 = 8x+10

24≠10   (you subtract 8x when taken to the other side)

So, the answer would be NO SOLUTION

Final answer:

To apply the distributive property to expression M, multiply each term inside the parentheses by 4, resulting in M = 8x + 24. Comparing this to expression N, which is N = 8x + 10, one can see that M and N are not equivalent because their constant terms differ.

Explanation:

Part A: Equivalent Expression for M

To find an equivalent expression for M, we use the distributive property which states that multiplying a sum by a number is the same as multiplying each addend by the number and then adding the products. Therefore:

M = 4(2x + 6)

Apply the distributive property to get:

M = (4 × 2x) + (4 × 6)

M = 8x + 24

Part B: Are M and N Equivalent?

To determine if M and N are equivalent expressions, we must compare the expressions that we have for M and N:

M = 8x + 24

N = 8x + 10

Since the coefficients of x are the same but the constant terms are different, the two expressions are not equivalent for any value of x.

For what value of the variable the value of the expression 4(5x–8) is 4 more than the value of the expression 2(4–x)?

Answers

The value of the expression 4(5x–8) is 4 more than the value of the expression 2(4–x) for x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write the given problem mathematically to solve it

So,

[tex]4(5x-8) = 2(4-x)+4[/tex]

First of all, distributive property will be applied

[tex]20x-32 = 8-2x+4\\20x-32 = 12-2x[/tex]

We have to isolate the variable on one side of the equation

Adding 2x on both sides of equation

[tex]20x-32+2x = 12-2x+2x\\22x-32 = 12[/tex]

Addition property of equality with 32

[tex]22x-32+32 = 12+32\\22x = 44[/tex]

Division Property of Equality (22)

[tex]\frac{22x}{22} = \frac{44}{22}\\x = 2[/tex]

Hence,

The value of the expression 4(5x–8) is 4 more than the value of the expression 2(4–x) for x=2

To answer the question, we evaluated two absolute value expressions individually by converting mixed numbers to improper fractions, performing the operations, and taking absolute values. The sum of these evaluations is 14.

The question involves evaluating two absolute value expressions and adding the results. We will work through each expression step by step.

First Expression

|6 3/8 - 2|

To solve this, convert the mixed number to an improper fraction, subtract 2, and then find the absolute value.

Convert 6 3/8 to an improper fraction: (6 × 8) + 3 = 51/8.

Subtract 2 (written as 16/8) from 51/8: 51/8 - 16/8 = 35/8.

The absolute value of 35/8 is 35/8, as it is already positive.

Second Expression

|-8 5/8 + (-1)|

Similar approach: convert to an improper fraction, add -1, and find the absolute value.

Convert -8 5/8 to an improper fraction: (-8 × 8) - 5 = -69/8.

Add -1 (written as -8/8) to -69/8: -69/8 - 8/8 = -77/8.

The absolute value of -77/8 is 77/8, as we discard the negative sign in absolute value operations.

Add the results of both expressions: 35/8 + 77/8 = 112/8 = 14.

The distance from the moon to Earth is approximately 385,000 km, and data travels over the link at the speed of light (3 x 10 meters per sec.). Calculate the minimum RTT (two-way propagation time) for the link.(In other words, how long would it take to send a single bit to the moon and immediately bounce it right back to Earth?) The half-lives for the forward and reverse reactions that are first order in both directions are 24ms and 39 ms, respectively. Calculate the corresponding relaxation time (s) for the return to equilibrium after a temperature jump. Please enter your answer with two significant figures (unit: s).

Please help me. My math teacher said that there is some sort of pattern that will help us understand how to win the game. Here is what the question is:You will be competing with other contestants for a grand prize of 1 million dollars. All of the contestants will form a circle around the host. Starting at seat #1, The person to the left of that contestant seat #1 is out of the game. The next remaining contestant is in seat #3. The person left of that remaining contestant is out of the game. This pattern continues until there is one contestant remaining. The object is simple. Determine what seat # you must sit on the circle in order to be the last contestant remaining. Since you do not know how many contestants are on the show, you must come up with an explanation of how to win at this game.Thank you friends! 9) In one year, Angie's height went from 58 to 60 inches.

(Round to the nearest percentage) Drug x, a drug that claims to treat male pattern scalp hair loss, was administered for 12 months to over 1800 men aged 18 to 41 with mild to moderate amounts of ongoing hair loss. Whether they were receiving drug x or a placebo ( a pill containing no medication), all men were given a medicated shampoo. In general, men who took drug x maintained or increased the number of visible scalp hairs; while scalp hairs counts in men who took the placebo continued to decrease. This concluded that drug x is effective in maintaining or increasing the amount of scalp hair in men.a. Which statement in this example can be referred to as descriptive statistics?b.
