A shorter way is ..Just do a reciprocal on both sides. and separate terms.

very cool. im studying Trig on my own from books now. Saddly in the US the schools all are utterly dependent on graphing calculators.. The text books are.not just 600$ but also are essential nothing short of a manual for whatever the calculator the school is selling.

Instead of plugging in (-2m) for n, you could've taken (-2m) = n and divided m, giving you -2=n/m, which was the question. I love finding more than one way to solve a problem, even if it's not drastically different.

We don’t know if m is nonzero tho. Would that be an issue?
@aleycolt382410 ай бұрын
@@foxster.mp4 we do know that m is non zero from the equation. If m were zero, it would be 0/x which equals 0 and not 1/5. (if x were 0, as it should be, we would have 0/0, which is also not 1/5) It's also why we can cancel the m in the second part. I hope a lot of questions like this state that m=/=0 though.

From the equation, can we assume that m=1 and 3m-n=5? 3m-n=5 3(1)-n=5 n=-2 n/m=(-2)/1=(-2)

How can we assume without solving it on top of that 3m-n can't equal to 5.it is not mentioned hope you got my point😊@@muzakkyadhitya6471
@aleycolt382410 ай бұрын
The danger of your answer is that we cannot assume the values of m or n. In fact we are not required to know the values. The answer merely requires us to determine the relationship between n and m. If I assumed m=5, then I could still get n/m=-2 (n would be -10) The assumption works because the relationship is linear. This question is designed to test your ability to cross multiply and perform a subsitution. If later questions involved multiple powers (quadratic equations) or other functions, your method would prove wrong as the top could be strictly less than 1

well 2/10, 3/15, 4/20... are also equal to 1/5. Why don't you take m=2 or m=3 or any other real number

This can be figured out “by inspection”. (Mental “eyeballing”) by dividing both sides of the fraction on the left by m. This leaves you one on top and 2- n/m as the denominator, which in order to equal 5, requires that n/m = -3

Um, shareholder percentage?? What is shareholder percentage and dividends?
m / (3m - n) = 1 / 5 ; Divide top and bottom of the LHS by m 1 / (3 - (n / m)) = 1 / 5 ; So left denominator = right denominator 3 - (n / m) = 5 ; So n/m = -2

Better u reverse both side .. now very easy to find

You could also apply ^-1 to each side, then cancel 3m with m, then you'd have n/m=-2. Good Lord, I'm smart... 😂

I got to it like this: seperate: m/3m - m/n = 1/5 flip: 3m/m - n/m = 5 simplify: 3-n/m = 5, -n/m = 2, n/m = -2
@shashibalarai114610 ай бұрын
I did this by comparing LHS and RHS I.e. Given: m/( 3m - n) =1/5 So let LHS numerator = RHS numerator I.e. m=1 And LHS denominator = RHS denominator I.e. 3m - n = 5 ( now putting value of m from above, we get) 3(1) - n =5 3 - n = 5 n = -2 Evaluating n/m we get -2/1 I.e. -2 Is this a wrong method 🤔

@420sakura110 ай бұрын
Cancel m in the lhs giving 1/(3-n/m)) = 1/5 X multiplying 5= 3-n/m Thus n/m= -2
