3x+5=2x+7. Find X to complete the equation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5=2x+7   this is the original equation

since we have no clue as to what x could be, we just take a guess.

lets say we used 3.

we would plug in 3 where the x's are and get

3(3)+5=2(3)=7

three times three is 9, 9 plus 5 is 14.

2 times 3 is 6, 6 plus 7 is 13.

since these numbers do not match, 3 cannot be the answer.

if you did these same steps with the number two, you would get 11 as the answer for both, therefore, x=2

3(2)+5                    2(2)+7

6 +5=11                 4+7=11

Kathy, who plans conferences and parties for a resort, earns $342.22 weekly. Her group medical insurance costs $4,650.00 a year, and the company pays 70% of the costs. How much does she have deducted weekly from her paycheck for medical insurance?

Answers

Answer:

Weekly cost= $26.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Her group medical insurance costs $4,650.00 a year, and the company pays 70% of the costs.

First, we need to calculate how much she pays a year:

Cost per year= 4,650*0.3

Cost per year= $1,395

Now, the weekly cost:

Weekly cost= 1,395/52

Weekly cost= $26.83

Step-by-step explanation:

you would do 7× 11 which is 77. then you would do (7×4)/2 which is 14. you then add both of those numbers and get 91m^2

Solve for m:

13=2m+5


Please explain how you figured this out.

Answers

13=2m + 5
8 = 2m
m = 4

EXPLANATION:
we have to break the equation down to find m. so, first, we take care of the 5. you can subtract 5 from the right side and what you do to the right, you have to do to the left.
this gives you 8 = 2m
next, we have to get rid of the 2 in order to only have an m. this means we have to divide m and 2. and remember, what you do to one side, you have to do to the other.
so, you do 2m divided by 2, giving you m and 8 divided by 2 giving you m = 4!!

I am thinking of two numbers. Their sum is 1776 and their difference is 1492. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer:

1634 and 142

Step-by-step explanation:

y+x=1776

- (y-x=1492)

equals:

2x=284

÷2 ÷2

x=142

y+142=1776

-142 -142

y=1634

First number and second number are 1,634 and 142.

Given that;

Difference of two number = 1,492

Sum of two number = 1,776

Find:

The numbers

Computation:

Assume numbers are 'a, b'

So,

a + b = 1776  ...... eq1

a - b = 1492  ...... eq2

Eq 1 - Eq2

2b = 284

b = 142

a + b = 1776

a + 142 = 1776

a = 1,634

I say this because these numbers are negatives. If you put them on a number line you can see that the bigger numbers are farther from the postitives. Postitive numbers are bigger so whatever is close to them is bigger. So because (-1) is closer to them it would be greater, which is what the symbol "<' states.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST PLEASE ANSWER If a circle is dilated by 5/3 and the area of the larger circle is 100pi square cm, then what would be the area of the smaller circle?

Answers

Answer:

We have a small circle, that is dilated by a factor of 5/3 creating a larger circle.

If the smaller circle has a diameter D, then after the dilation, the larger circle will have a diameter equal to: (5/3)*D

We know that the area of the larger circle is:

A = 100*pi cm^2.

And the area of a circle of diameter d, is:

a = pi*(d/2)^2

knowing that the diameter of the large circle is (5/3)*D, we can find the value of D.

A = pi*( (5/3)*D/2)^2 = 100*pi cm^2

let's solve this for D:

pi*( (5/3)*D/2)^2 = 100*pi cm^2

( (5/3)*D/2)^2 = 100 cm^2

( (5/3)*D/2) = √(100 cm^2) = 10cm

D/2 = (3/5)*10cm

D = 2*(3/5)*10cm = 12cm.

Then the area of the smaller circle will be:

a = pi*(D/2)^2 = pi*(12cm/2)^2 = pi*(6cm)^2 = pi*36 cm^2

and pi = 3.14

a = pi*36 cm^2 = 3.14*36cm^2 = 113.04 cm^2

find the number of words with or without meaning , which can be made by using all the letters of word ganga

Answers

Answer:

There are total 5 letters , of which A occur two times and G occur 2 times

Therefore , The number of permutations starting with A is 4! i.e 24

Thus , 25th word will be start from G i.e GGAAN

By rearranging according to the dictionary , we get

The 26th word will be GGANA

Hence , the 26th word is GGANA

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation

total number of letters in the word, n = 5

out of which G and A repeats 2 times each

p1 = p2 = 2

according to the equation of number of permutations,

= [tex]\frac{n!}{p_{1}! p_{2}! }[/tex]

total number of words = 5!/ (2! x 2!)

                                      = 30

-5 + 2(10)

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 + 2(10)

-5+20

=15

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS:

P - Parenthases

E - Exponents

M - Multiply

D - Divide

A - Add

S - Subtract

When something is in parenthases this means to multiply, like 2(10) means 2 x 10 = 20. Than, - 5 + 20, is the same as 20 - 5.

20 - 5 is 15.

Today only, a table is being sold for $714. This is 85% of its regular price. What was the price Yesterday

Answers

Answer:

$840

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, we can use our formula for solving percents. [tex]\frac{Part}{Whole}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{Percent}{100}[/tex]

The part here is $714 because this is only 85% of the original price which is the whole. Our whole in this problem will be x. As for the percent, we will write 85.

We now have [tex]\frac{714}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{85}{100}[/tex]

To solve this, we use the rules of a proportion. 714 * 100 = 71,400 and then we will divide that by 85 to find x. x = 840

So, the original price was $840.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

714  is 85%

the full price P is 100%

Using the ratio method

714 /85   =  P/100

TO find P cross multiply

85P = 714*100

85P = 71400

p = 71400/85  = $840

Ans yesterday's price = $840

or

85% of P = 714

.85*P =714

p = 714/.85

p = $840
