hope this helps! ❤ from peachimin

Answer 2

Gotcha!

3(x+4)=5(x-2)

Distributive Property

3x+12=5x-10

Subtract 5x from 3x & 12 from -10

So far, you would have: -2x=-22

Divide both sides by -2!

Answer: x=11

could a number ever be both rational and irrational

Answers

No. Irrational numbers are things like pi and numbers that don't end. ex. 3.14159... or 2.368964...

By definition an irrational number is one that is not rational. Therefore, it is not possible for a number to both rational and irrational.

How many ounces of pure nickel must be added to 150 ounces of alloy 70% pure to make an alloy which is 85% pure?

Answers

Answer:

150 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are already 150 ounces of alloy of nickel.

Of this 150 oz, 70% is pure i.e. nickel content = 150(0.7) = 105 oz

Now available is

Nickel       Other metals

105                  45

Let x oz of pure nickel is added.

Then new alloy will have 105+x oz nickel in total of 150+x oz.

Percentage pure = [tex]\frac{105+x}{150+x} =85%[/tex]

Simplify to get

[tex]\frac{105+x}{150+x} =\frac{85}{100} \\\\Cross multiply:\\85(150+x) =100(105+x)\\12750+85x =10500+100x\\100x-85x = 12750-10500\\15x = 2250\\x = 150[/tex]

Hence answer is 150 oz should be added.

A certain bacteria is placed in a jar. Initially, there are 25 bacteria. Every hour, the number of bacteria quadruples. How much bacteria will there be in 6 hours?

Answers

Hello!

So, to answer this question we need to note that quadruple = x4

25 (our initial count) x 4 = 100

100 (after one hour) x 4 = 400

400 (after two hours) x 4 = 1600

1600 (after three hours) x 4 = 6400

6400 (after four hours) x 4 = 25600

25600 (after five hours) x 4 = 102400


So to answer your question, after six hours, there will be 102,400 of that bacteria in the jar.

john is saving money at a constant rate. Suppose he initially has $110 saved and after 2 months he has $160 saved. at what rate is john saving

Answers

The rate John is saving is 25. How? You can do 160-110 (to find difference). After this, you will get 50. You can now divide this by 2 (because the problem says two months), which is 25. You can see if this is correct by adding 25 to 110 two times.


110 + 25

= 135


135+25

=160


John is saving money at a constant rate is $25.

Given that, suppose he initially has $110 saved and after 2 months he has $160 saved.

What is the rate?

The definition of a rate is a quantity measured and compared to another quantity measured (such as a number of miles per hour) or is the cost of something.

Now, money saved=160-110=$50, time 2 months

Rate of money per month=50/2=$25

Therefore, John is saving money at a constant rate is $25.

Rule: y=x−4

x y

Answers

Answer:

x y

4 0

6 2

8 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x-4

Replace x each x variable

4-4=0

6-4=2

8-4=4

To complete the table for the given rule y = x - 4, the values of y are found by substituting the x-values into the equation, resulting in y-values of 0, 2, and 4 for x-values of 4, 6, and 8, respectively.

The student has asked to complete a table for the given rule: y = x - 4. To find the value of y for each given x, we simply substitute the x values into the equation and solve for y.

For x = 4, y = 4 - 4 = 0.

For x = 6, y = 6 - 4 = 2.

For x = 8, y = 8 - 4 = 4.

Therefore, the completed table is:

x = 4, y = 0

x = 6, y = 2

x = 8, y = 4

Find three consecutive even integers such that the sum of twice the smallest and three times the largest is 42

Answers

Answer:

6,8,10

Step-by-step explanation:

Two consecutive even integers would have difference of 2

Hence we can assume the three consecutive integers to be of the form

a-2, a and a+2

Smallest number = a-2 and

Largest number = a+2

Twice the smallest number + 3 times largest number =42 (given)

2(a-2)+3(a+2) = 42

2a-4+3a+6 =42

5a +2 =42

Subtract 2 and then divide by 5

5a = 40 and a = 8

Hence the three numbers are 6,8 and 10

What is the general equation of a Straight line?

The general equation of a straight line is -

[y] = [m]x + [c]

where -

[m] is slope of line which tells the unit rate of change of [y] with respect to [x].

[c] is the y - intercept i.e. the point where the graph cuts the [y] axis.

The equation of a straight line can be also written as -

Ax + By + C = 0

By = - Ax - C

y = (- A/B)x - (C/A)

Given is a table in which [x] represents the age in years of a collectible baseball card, and [y] represents its value in dollars.

We have the following table -

Cards age [x]                 5                      10                      15                    20    

Value in dollars [y]      $0.75               $5.75                $10.75            $15.75

We can calculate the slope of the linear function as -

m = (5.75 - 0.75)/(10 - 5)

m = 5/5

m = 1

Therefore, the slope of the linear function that the table represents is one.

f(x) = x+4 is the first function

We plug in -4 for x  in f(x) = x+4

f(-4) = -4 + 4 = 0

So the graph starts at (-4,0)

Now plug in 3 for x  in f(x) = x+4

f(3) = 3 + 4 = 7

So the first function ends at (3,7)

Second function is f(x) = 2x - 1

We plug in 3 for x  in f(x) = 2x-1

f(3) =2(3)-1 = 5

So the second graph starts at (3,5)

We plug in 6 for x  in f(x) = 2x-1

f(6) =2(6)-1 = 11

So the second graph ends at (6,11)

Complete the ratio table to show ratios equivalent to 16:10. The blank parts are what's missing. Thank you

2 8
36 9 72

Answers

Final answer:

The ratio table is completed by finding values that are equivalent to the ratio 16:10, which simplifies to 8:5. The corresponding values are calculated by setting up proportions based on the original ratio.

Explanation:

To complete the ratio table that shows ratios equivalent to 16:10, we first understand that the ratio can be simplified to 8:5 by dividing both terms by 2.

We can use this simplified ratio to find missing values in the table.

For the row with 2 in the first column, the second column should be 2 times 5/8 (since 8:5 is equivalent to 16:10) to maintain the ratio equivalency.

This gives us the value 2*(5/8)=1.25.

In the row where the second column is 36, we need to determine the equivalent in the first column.

We set up the proportion 8/5=x/36, and solving for x gives us 8*(36/5)=57.6.

The last row given is 72 in the second column.

To find the corresponding first column value, we use the ratio 8/5=x/72 and solve for x to find 8*(72/5)=115.2.

The filled in ratio table should look like this:

2 : 1.2557.6 : 36115.2 : 72

Answer : option D

Find the solution of 7x = 35

To solve for x , we need to get x alone

so we divide by 7 on both sides

[tex]\frac{7x}{7} =\frac{35}{7}[/tex]

So x= 5

To verify the solution we plug in 5 for x in the given equation 7x= 35

x=5

We have, 7x= 35

7(5)= 35

35= 35

So verified

The solution of expression is,

D. x = 5; 7(5) = 35, 35 = 35

We have to give that,

An equation to simplify,

7x = 35

Now, Simplify the equation as,

7x = 35

Divide on both sides by 7,

7x/7 = 35/7

x = 5

Hence, The solution is, x = 5

And verify it as,

7x = 35

Put x= 5;

7 (5) = 35

7 × 5 = 35

35 = 35
