if 1/6 of a number,plus one third returns two-thirds of that number what is the number
please help!!!!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

let n be the number , then

[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] n + [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] n

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

n + 2 = 4n ( subtract n from both sides )

2 = 3n ( divide both sides by 3 )

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = n

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]{\mathsf {n=\frac{2}{3}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In word problems like this, you have to break down the problem description into math form

This is an equation description so we need a variable to work with. Let's call this variable n

1/6th of this number can be translated to:
[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf {\frac{1}{6}n}[/tex]  


1/6th of this number plus one-third translates to:
[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf {\frac{1}{6}n} + \frac{1}{3}[/tex]


1/6th of this number, plus one-third returns two-thirds of that number
returns is just a fancy way of saying equal to.

So returns two-thirds of that number translates to
= two-thirds of that number

Two-thirds of the number is
[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf {\frac{2}{3}n}[/tex]

So putting all this together we get the equation
[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf {\frac{1}{6}n} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{3}\mathsf n[/tex]

We have to now solve for the equation.

Bring all the n terms to the left side and the constant(1/3) to the right to solve for n

[tex]\displaystyle \mathsf{ Subtract\:}\frac{1}{3}\mathsf {\:from\:both\:sides}[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf {\frac{1}{6}n+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{3}n-\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

Simplify to get
[tex]\mathsf {\frac{1}{6}n=\frac{2}{3}n-\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

Subtract [tex]\mathsf {\frac{2}{3}}[/tex] from both sides
[tex]\mathsf {\frac{1}{6}n-\frac{2}{3}n=\frac{2}{3}n-\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{3}n}[/tex]

Simplify  to get
[tex]\mathsf{\frac{1}{6}n-\frac{2}{3}n= -\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

The left side term is [tex]\mathsf {\frac{1}{6}n-\frac{2}{3}n}[/tex]
Factor out the common term [tex]n[/tex]:
[tex]\mathsf {n\left(\frac{1}{6}-\frac{2}{3}\right)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf {\frac{1}{6}-\frac{2}{3}=-\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

So we get our equation as
[tex]\mathsf {-\frac{1}{2}n=-\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -2 to get

[tex]\boxed {\mathsf {n=\frac{2}{3}}}[/tex]

Games-R-Us offers a video game rental program with a monthly fee of $10 plus $2 per game rental. Games2Go charges a $2 monthly fee plus $4 per game. Given the same to stores Games-R-Us and Games2Go, how many games would you have to rent from each company to have your total cost be the same amount?

Answers

Answer:

4 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of games rented from both be represented by: g

For Games - R - Us

Games-R-Us offers a video game rental program with a monthly fee of $10 plus $2 per game rental.

$10 + $2 × g

= 10 + 2g

For Games2Go

Games2Go charges a $2 monthly fee plus $4 per game.

$2 + $4 × g

= 2 + 4g

Hence,

Games-R-Us = Games2Go

10 + 2g = 2 + 4g

Collect like terms

10 - 2 = 4g - 2g

8 = 2g

g = 8/2

g = 4 games

Therefore, number of games you would have to rent from each company to have your total cost be the same amount is 4 games

Answers

Answer:

6 from 2x+6=3x-8 goes to right side and becomes -6 so -6+(-8)= -14

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+6=3x-8

2x=3x-8-6

2x=3x-14

2x-3x=-14

-x=-14

x=14

Subtract 6 from left side, to get 2x=3x-14

Elsa and two of her closest friends went out to dinner to celebrate Elsaś birthday. The bill for dinner totaled $74.80. If they decided to leave a 20% tip, what was the amount paid by each person in Elsaś party before taxes?

Answers

Answer:

$29.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

The bill for dinner totaled $74.80

Then the tip is 20%

Required

The amount paid by each person after the tip was added to the cost of the dinner

Step two:'

the amount of the tip is

=20/100*74.80

= 0.2*74.80

=$14.96

The total is 14.96+74.80

=$89.76

The number of persons including the celebrant is = 3

so each person will pay

=89.76/3

=$29.92

What is the value of x in the equation 3 - 2x= -1 5x?​

Answers

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x + -5x = 3x + 12

Combine like terms: 2x + -5x = -3x

-3x = 3x + 12

Reorder the terms:

-3x = 12 + 3x

Solving

-3x = 12 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

-3x + -3x = 12 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: -3x + -3x = -6x

-6x = 12 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

-6x = 12 + 0

-6x = 12

Divide each side by '-6'.

x = -2

Simplifying

x = -2

f(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x minus 6 EndRoot + 1
f(x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x + 6 EndRoot minus 1

Answers

The translation of the parent function is:

g(x) = ∛(x + 6) + 1

How do translations work?

There are two types of translations, these are:

Horizontal translation:

For a function f(x), a horizontal translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x + N)

If N is positive, the translation is to the left.If N is negative, the translation is to the right.

Vertical translation:

For a function f(x), a vertical translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + N

If N is positive the translation is upwards.If N is negative the translation is downwards.

Here we start with the parent function:

f(x) = ∛x

And we apply two translations such that:

g(x) = ∛(x + a) + b

Such that:

g(-7) = 0

g(2) = 3

Then we have the system of equations:

∛(-7 + a) + b = 0

∛(2 + a) + b = 3

From the options, the only ones that make the first option true are:

g(x) = ∛(x + 6) + 1

Such that when evaluated in x = -7 we get:

g(-7) =  ∛(-7 + 6) + 1 =  ∛(-1) + 1 = 0

When evaluated in x = 2 it gives:

∛(2 + 6) + 1 =  ∛(8) + 1 = 2+ 1 = 3

So the only option that meets these conditions is:

g(x) = ∛(x + 6) + 1

Which is a translation to the left of 6 units and up 1 unit.

The amount of money that Matt has will be $64.

What is the solution to the equation?

The distribution of weights to the variables involved that establishes the equilibrium in the calculation is referred to as a result.

Ginger and matt have a total of $124.00 dollars. Ginger has $12.00 more than 3/4 of the amount Matt has.

Let x be the amount that Ginger has and y be the amount that Matt has. Then the equations will be

x + y = 124           ...1

x = (3/4)y + 12     ...2

From equations 1 and 2, then we have

(3/4)y + 12 + y = 124

(7/4)y = 112

y = $64

Then the amount  that Ginger has will be

x = (3/4)64 + 12

x = 48 + 12

x = $60

The amount of money that Matt has will be $64.

Answers

Answer:

I cannot see the number line mentioned here, but I'll explain how you multiply negative and positive using tiles and number line.

To multiply positive and a negative nunber, for instance, 2(–3), you'll think of it as 2 groups of negative one in three's. Using tiles you have

–1 –1

–1 –1

–1 –1

Two groups of negative one in three's, adding that up we have 6.

Using number line. See 2(–3), for instance, as moving twice in intervals of –3. If I am to multiply that, starting from 0, if I move once, I'll land at –3, if I move one more time, I'll land at –6. Since I am to move twice, that's the required answer.
