I thought of a number, multiplied it by 2 1/2, divided the result by 1 1/5, subtracted 7/18 from it, and got 1 5/6. What was my number?

Answers

Answer 1
1 and 1/15

Work backwards, so add 7/18 to 1 5/6 first (I'm gonna add them in improper fraction form to make it easier) and you get 40/18 which is 20/9
Then multiply by 1 1/5 (or 6/5) to get 120/45 which simplifies to 8/3
Then divide by 2 1/2, or 5/2, which means you multiply by the reciprocal (2/5)
8/3 times 2/5 equals 16/15 or 1 1/15
Answer 2

Answer:

1 1/15

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

3.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 4 as the denominator :

28 28 • 4

28 = —— = ——————

1 4

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 :

3.2 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 - (28 • 4) x - 112

When a fraction equals zero

4.1 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-112

————— • 4 = 0 • 4

4

Now, on the left hand side, the 4 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

x-112 = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

4.2 Solve : x-112 = 0

Add 112 to both sides of the equation :

x = 112

One solution was found :

The sum of the first three terms of a sequence is 6 and the fourth term is 16

Answers

Answer:

              a₁ = -5, d = 7,  a₂ = 2, a₃ = 9, a₄ = 16

equation of sequence:    [tex]\boxed{\bold{a_n=7n-12}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁ + a₂ + a₃ = 6    

a₁ + a₁ + d + a₁ + 2d = 6

3a₁ + 3d = 6

a₁ + d= 2     ⇒ a₁ = 2 - d

a₄ = 16

a₁ + 3d = 16

2 - r + 3d = 16

2d = 14

d = 7

a₁ = 2-7 = -5

a₁ = -5, d = 7   ⇒  a₂ = -5+7 = 2, a₃ = 2+7 = 9, a₄ = 9+7 = 16

Given the following two points write the equation in slope intercept form: (0, -5) and (4, 3)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=2x-5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding the slope using the two points given. Use the formula for slope below:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Identify your values:

[tex]x_1=0\\x_2=4\\y_1=-5\\y_2=3[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]m=\frac{3-(-5)}{4-0}[/tex]

Combine terms:

[tex]m=\frac{8}{4}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]m=2[/tex]

_

Let's graph these two points. As seen on the graph attached, we can see that [tex]-5[/tex] is the y-intercept. With our slope and y-intercept, we have the information needed to formulate an equation in slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Identify your values:

[tex]m=2[/tex]

[tex]b=-5[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]y=2x-5[/tex]

(f + h)(x)
given f(x)= 3x-2x+4, g(x)= 8x-2, h(x)= 3x +2

Answers

Answer:

To find the answers, all I have to do is apply the operations (plus, minus, times, and divide) that they tell me to, in the order that they tell me to.

(f + g)(x) = f (x) + g(x)

= [3x + 2] + [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 + 4 – 5x

= 3x – 5x + 2 + 4

= –2x + 6

(f – g)(x) = f (x) – g(x)

= [3x + 2] – [4 – 5x]

= 3x + 2 – 4 + 5x

= 3x + 5x + 2 – 4

= 8x – 2

(f  × g)(x) = [f (x)][g(x)]

= (3x + 2)(4 – 5x)

= 12x + 8 – 15x2 – 10x

= –15x2 + 2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

A bird leaves its nest and travels 15 miles per hour downwind for x hours. On the return trip, the bird travels 3 miles per hour slower and has 2 miles left after x hours.

a. What is the distance of the entire trip?

miles

b. How long does the entire trip take?

_hours
_minutes and
_seconds

Answers

Answer:

A)

10 miles.

B)

0 hours, 40 minutes, and 0 seconds.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that distance is given by the formula:

[tex]d=st[/tex]

Where d is the distance, s is the speed, and t is the time.

We know that the bird leaves its nest and travels 15 miles per hour for x hours. So, let's substitute 15 for s and x for t:

[tex]d=15x[/tex]

On the return trip, the bird travels 3 miles per hour slower and has 2 miles left after x hours.

Since this is the return trip, the distance d remains the same. We know that the bird travels 3 miles per hour slower, so it's speed is 15-3 or 12 miles per hour.

However, after x hours, it still has 2 miles left until reaching the destination. So, we will subtract 2 from d. This gives us the equation:

[tex]d-2=12x[/tex]

We can solve this using substitution. Since we already know that d is 15x. Substitute:

[tex]15x-2=12x[/tex]

Solve for x. Subtract 12x from both sides:

[tex]3x-2=0[/tex]

Add 2 to both sides:

[tex]3x=2[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3:

[tex]x=2/3[/tex]

Therefore, the bird traveled for a total of 2/3 hours or 40 minutes.

And the distance the bird traveled is:

[tex]d=15x[/tex]

Substitute 2/3 for x to get:

[tex]d=15(2/3)=30/3=10\text{ miles}[/tex]

What is ratio?

In mathematics, a ratio shows how many times one number contains another.

Given is that a large two-topping pizza from Tony's Pizzeria has 8 slices and costs $16.

The ratio of dollars to slices is given as - r = 16/8 = 2The ratio of dollars to slices is given as  is also equal to cost per slice as -  r = cost per slice = $2

Therefore, the ratio of dollars to slices is 2 and the cost per slice is $2.

The shorter side is ?
feet while the longer side is ?
feet.

Answers

Answer:

The shorter side is 8 feet

the longer side is 16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

lets call the shorter side x.

let's call the longer side 2x (because it's twice as long as the shorter side)

you know that the perimeter is 48 feet.

the perimeter would be 2(short side) + 2(long side)

using this, you can make the following equation:

2(x) + 2(2x) = 48

open the parenthesis.

2x + 4x = 48

6x = 48

x = 8

2x = 16
