Comment from student: I'm sorry but you misundersood my question or i didn't ask it right. But it was suppose to be fractions not adding all of it, right problem is 4/n - 1/2 = -6/3n Comment from student: Thank-you very much, for helping me solve it and for your promptness. Comment from student: Thank you for your help with these, i have a really hard time with this harder math. :) Comment from student: Thanks again. :) Comment from student: Thank you again for your help :) Comment from student: Thank you for your help :) Comment from student: Thank you very much i rally appreciated Comment from student: this didnt help me. how do i get rid of the logarithim? Comment from student: is 4^2-25y^2 Comment from student: Hi Jeff. Thanks for the response... This is really strange, that problem isn't what I had typed... the 90-0-0-0-090-87797 and x = 1,68758758587587578 are strange things that popped up who knows how... I'm going to try to paste from my clipboard what I originally wrote. Hopefully it will stay this way this time... In case it doesn't work, the 90-0-0-0-090-87797 simply is not supposed to be there at all, and at the end I go that x equals one thousand three hundred and eighty six over fifty five. Thanks again! I have a pretty simple problem from my homework that I just can't seem to figure out. It's not a huge deal, but it's annoying me that I can get all the others but this seemingly simple problem has got me stumped! The problem: A quantity, 2/3 of it, 1/2 of it, and 1/7 of it, added together, equals 33. What is the quantity? Here's what I've tried, and checked repeatedly, but don't see the error... (I'm sure it's something simple, which is so annoying!) let x = the quantity 2/3x + 1/2x + 1/7x = 33 [the problem I created from the word problem] (42)2/3x + (42)1/2x + (42)1/7x = 33(42) [multiply by common denominator to clear fractions] 28x + 21x + 6x = 1,386 55x = 1,386 x = 1,386/55 The book tells me that the correct problem is 1,386/97! Where in the world does the 97 come from?? Many thanks in advance for all the great help you guys give on here! |
