The sum of two one numbers, one of which is one thirds of the other, is 60. Find the smaller number

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 15

(y = 45)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 60

x = y/3

y/3 + y = 60 /*3

y + 3y = 180

4y = 180 /÷4

y = 45

x = y/3 = 45/3 = 15

Answer 2

Answer:

15 smaller    The other 45

Step-by-step explanation:

X= big

1/3(x) = small

x+1/3(x) = 60

Multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate the fraction

3x+x = 180

4x=180

x= 45   (big=45)

60-45= 15 (small = 15)

    45/3=15

-4+2x
4-12x
4÷12x

Answers

Answer:

4 - 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

-6(-2/3 + 2x)

we can distribute by multiplying -6 by whats inside of the parenthesis ( -2/3 and 2x )

-6 * -2/3 = 4

-6 * 2x = -12x

4 - 12x would be the equivalent expression

Given :A expression -6(2/3 +2x).

Answers

Answer:

y = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isosceles trapezoids have legs that are the same length

AB = CD

7y-4 = 4y-5

Subtract 4y from each side

7y-4-4y = 4y-5-4y

3y -4 = -5

Add 4 to each side

3y -4+4 = -5+4

3y = -1

Divide by 3

3y/3 = -1/3

y = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

an isoceles trapezoid means that both legs (the sides left and right) are of equal length.

the length of the baseline does not matter at all (I guess, it is given here to confuse us or for follow up questions).

so, we know that AB = CD.

and therefore

7y - 4 = 8y - 18

-4 = y - 18

14 = y

Problem 13

If we want to multiply (x^3-3x^2+2x) with (x^3-2x^2+x), then we can set up a diagram shown below. The terms are along the outside. The stuff inside is the result of multiplying each pair of outer terms.

Example: x^3 times x^3 = x^6 in the top left cornerAnother example: 2x times x = 2x^2 in the bottom right corner.

This is known as the box method to keep track of all the terms multiplied.

Once the table is filled out, we add up each term inside the boxes. Combine like terms if possible. Notice that I color-coded the like terms (eg: the x^3 terms are in green boxes).

The final answer is x^6 - 5x^5 + 9x^4 - 7x^3 + 2x^2
