Uhhhh... well i need help with this algebra but i kinda need it explained as well...meaning if you can help please explain what you did because i have no idea how to do this kind of problem
r+3
---- = 1
12
i need to know what r is
12
r+3
---- = 1
12
Multiply both sides by 12.
r + 3 = 12
Subtract 3 from both sides.
r = 9
__________________________
You can prove it by substituting 9 for r in the original equation.
12/12 = 1
OHHHH i get it i wasn't sure if i was supposed to mess with the 3 because ya know how with some problems you don't mess with the number next to the variable soo yeah thanks!:-)
(P.S. Thanks you were an angel sent from the math heaven!!lol)
You're welcome (polishing my halo)! :-)
To solve the equation (r + 3)/12 = 1 and find the value of r, we will follow a step-by-step approach:
Step 1: Clear the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by 12, the denominator.
(r + 3)/12 * 12 = 1 * 12
This simplifies to:
r + 3 = 12
Step 2: Now, isolate the variable r. To do this, we need to cancel out the constant term (3) by subtracting it from both sides of the equation:
r + 3 - 3 = 12 - 3
This simplifies to:
r = 9
Therefore, the value of r that satisfies the equation (r + 3)/12 = 1 is 9.
