The sum of a number and twice its reciprocal is 3. What are the numbers?

Let no be x

Acc to ques

X + 2(1/x) = 3

X + 2/x = 3

X^2 + 2 = 3x

X^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

X^2 - x - 2x + 2 = 0

X (x-1) - 2 (x-1) = 0

(x-2) (x-1) = 0

X= 2 or x =1

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
