1/14=3/42
22+3=25
25/42+33
33=1386/42

Question 568788: 4w^3/28w^2 Answer by jim_thompson5910(21667) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!4w^3/28w^2 = (4/28)(w^3/w^2) = (1/7)(w^(3-2)) = (1/7)w^1 = w/7
So 4w^3/28w^2 = w/7 for all values of w where w is not equal to zero

Question 568984: pretty sure i'm in the wrong place, but couldn't find a subject to suit
find derivatives of y=x^2-3x+1/x Answer by Theo(2967) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!looks like calculus.
i didn't see a category for calculus.
i put it in evaluation of expressions because this is an expression and you are evaluating it by finding the derivative.
might be a stretch, that was my best guess.
i don't remember a lot about calculus, but i do remember the rules are:
derivative of ax^n equals n * a * x^(n-1)
a is the coefficient.
x is the variable.
using those rules, i would say the derivative of x^2 - 3x + 1/x would be calculated as follows:
rewrite the equation as the equivalent expression of:
x^2 - 3x + 1x^(-1)
take the derivative following the rules to get:
2x - 3 - 1x^(-2) which results in:
2x - 3 - 1/x^2 which can be rewritten as:
2x - 1/x^2 - 3
i found a calculator on the web that differentiates equations.
that calculator can be found at:
http://freemathhelp.com/derivative-calculator.php?diff=x^2-3*x%2B1%2Fx&var=x&Submit=Get+Derivative
it gave me the same answer.
i believe this calculator needs you to explicitly enter multiplication operators.
your equation of x^2 - 3x + 1/x should be entered as:
x^2 - 3*x + 1/x

Question 567810: 8s+4t+11s Answer by jim_thompson5910(21667) (Show Source):
Question 567497: P=5n+5w Answer by nyc_function(2626) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!I work 32 hours on the weekend and now is when I have some time to reply to student questions.
You need to solve for n NOT N. Big difference between little n and big N.
P = 5n + 5w
The goal is to isolate the letter you are solving for.
Begin by subtracting 5w from both sides.
P - 5w = 5n + 5w - 5w
As you know, positive and negative terms cancel out.
So, on the right side, 5w and -5w cancel out.
We now have P - 5w = 5n.
To solve for n, divide both sides by the coefficient of n, which is 5.
Final answer: P - 5w/5 = n, which can also be written n = (P - 5w)/5
Done!

Question 565036: How do I write an expression for the perimeter of a rectangle with its width 6x+5 and length 3x Answer by ad_alta(170) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!Remember that the perimeter (P) is equal to 2w+2l for length 'l' and width 'w.' So the expression would be 2(6x+5)+2(3x)=18x+10.

-------
Perimeter = 2(width + length)
-----
P = 2(6x+5 + 3x)
----
P = 2(9x+5)

Question 564939: how do i solve k(k-3)=28 Answer by issacodegard(60) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!Distribute the k:
k(k-3)=28
k*k-k*3=28
k^2-3k=28
Subtract 28:
k^2-3k-28=0
Factor:
(k-7)(k+4)=0
Since the product of two expressions is zero for some k, one of them must be zero. This implies:
k-7=0 OR k+4=0
This implies:
k=7 OR k=-4

Question 563359: Let f(x)= 2x^2 -x +1 and g(x)= SQUARE ROOT OF(5-x).... Find and simplify each of the following:
1) g(-19)
2) g^-1(x)
3) (f o g)(4)
4) g^-1(1) Answer by stanbon(48516) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!Let f(x)= 2x^2 -x +1 and g(x)= SQUARE ROOT OF(5-x).... Find and simplify each of the following:
1) g(-19) = sqrt(5+19) = sqrt(24)
-------------------------------------
2) g^-1(x)
Given y = sqrt(5-x)
Interchange x and y:
x = sqrt(5-y)
5-y = x^2
y = 5-x^2
g^-1(x) = 5-x^2
-------------------------------------
3) (f o g)(4) = f[g(4)] = f[sqrt(1)] = 1 = 2-1+1 = 2
-------------------------------------
4) g^-1(1)
g^-1(1) = 5-1^2 = 4

Question 562878: The difference of two numbers is 4. 5 times the smaller number is four more than three times the larger. Find the two numbers Answer by Maths68(1140) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!Let x (smaller) and y (larger) be the two numbers
The difference of two numbers is 4
y-x=4
y=4+x..............(1)
5 times the smaller number is four more than three times the larger
5x=3y+4..............(2)
Put the value of y in above equation
5x=3(x+4)+4
5x=3x+12+4
5x=3x+16
5x-3x=16
2x=16
2x/2=16/2
x=8
Put the value of x in (1)
y=4+x..............(1)
y=4+8
y=12
Two numbers are = 8, 12

Question 560241: please help me solve -14+(-20)+75+(-43) Found 2 solutions by rapaljer, Maths68: Answer by rapaljer(4551) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!The negative numbers represent DEBT, while postive numbers represent money in your favor. You can add the negatives togther first -14+-20 + -43, which is a total of -77, then add +75. Since total debt is more than total money in your favor, subtract, and you have a total debt of 2 dollars, i.e., -2.

Question 559664: please help me solve this equation -8 + 5 (g + 2) + -2 Answer by Earlsdon(6098) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!First, this is not an equation, it's an expression and you can't "solve" an expression.
Did you want to simplify this expression?
-8+5(g+2)+(-2) First, apply the distributive property to the middle term.
-8+5g+10+(-2) Now combine like-terms.
-8+10-2+5g simplify.
0+5g
The answer is 5g.

It say to complete it but not to multiply factors.
And also everything is squared, the -7y or whatever after the ^2 is not included in the exponent. Answer by Theo(2967) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!as far as i can tell, your answer is number 4 in the attached diagram.
number 1 is my interpretation of your problem statement.
number 2 is the same equation after it has been factored and some obvious common terms in the numerator and the denominator have been removed because they will cancel out.
number 3 is making a/(b/c) equal to a*(c/b) and then removing some more obvious common terms in the numerator and the denominator that will cancel out.
number 4 is the result.
