Question

I might know the answer but mehnoknow
What is the value of z for the equation fraction 1 over 3z = −fraction 5 over 6 + fraction 1 over 6z?

5
2
−2
−5

Answer 1

i think its b or c

Answer 2

Please, would you drop the "mehnoknow" part?
Then, please express your equation in symbolically (no words).

"fraction 1 over 3z" should appear as\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3z }\]

Answer 3

i am new to this so i do not know how to do that

Answer 4

and its apart of my name "WhoopsMehNoKnow" as in i do not know

Answer 5

Please show your actual work; it helps neither you nor me if you say "I think it's b or c." Why do you "think it's b or c?"

Answer 6

Thats why i am asking cause i am not for sure and i have no idea on how to work it out some guy i asked before did not tell me how he got it.

Answer 7

Do you actually want to be known for not knowing? In your shoes I'd change to a more flattering name than "mehnoknow."

Answer 8

i need someone to work it out with me since i do not actually know how to work out fractions

Answer 9

the only reason i come on this website is if i do not know how to work out an answer....so can we get to the actual question...

Answer 10

"1 over 3z" becomes\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3z }\]\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3z }\]

Answer 11

ik

Answer 12

Your turn: convert the 2nd expression (in words) to its symbolic equivalent.

Answer 13

......i do not know how since i am new to this websiteeeee

Answer 14

if it is such a huge deal i can just ask someone else

Answer 15

I expect some effort on your part, and your being new to this web site has little or nothing to do with my request that you write "- fraction 5 over 6" properly.

Answer 16

Please re-write "-fraction 5 over 6" symbolically.

Answer 17

my effort is going into knowing how to do an equation

Answer 18

what i need help with is knowing how to do a problem not for someone to criticize how i right out an equation even though they know exactly what i mean...

Answer 19

If you don't want to solve this problem and learn something from the process, I'd suggest you come back when you do want to solve it. Converting from words to correct math symbols is a skill that you really need now and will need in the future.

Answer 20

...i have been asking for someone to help me but you are the only person to respond but just to criticize my name and the way i type out equations on A WEBSITE i just signed up for...

Answer 21

the only thing i know how to actually do is 1 over 3 not the stuff you are doing so if you do not feel like helping then you can just leave plz and thankyou

Answer 22

Like i have been saying multiple times before is that i do not know how to do fractions that is why i am on this website in the first place...

Answer 23

my name should not have anything to do with my work at all...

Answer 24

Did you read what I said just a moment ago: You need to develop the skill of changing a math expression expressed in words to the equivalent expression expressed symbolically. Put some effort into this, please. How do you write "five over six" symbolically?

Answer 25

and did you not see what i said moments ago: I do not know how to do that...I only know how to do 1 over 3...

Answer 26

i am not ignoring what you are saying its just that i do not know how to do so...

Answer 27

You don't need to use the more sophisticated OpenStudy features. "five over six" is written as 5/6.

Now write this symbolically: "negative five over six."

Answer 28

to me 5/6 means 5 divided by 6 and since you know what 5 over 6 is why is it such a HUGE deal for me to write it out...i was taught old school math not this NOW would someone just help plz
