4( 3x +5 ) - 3 = 9x -7 what is x?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4( 3x +5 ) - 3 = 9x -7

Distribute

12x +20 -3 = 9x -7

Combine like terms

12x+17 = 9x-7

Subtract 9x from each side

12x-9x +17 = 9x-9x-7

3x +17 = -7

Subtract 17 from each side

3x+17-17 = -7-17

3x = -24

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = -24/3

x = -8

Answer 2

Answer: x= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4 ( 3x + 5 ) - 3 = 9x - 7

12x + 20 - 3 = 9x - 7

12x + 17 = 9x - 7

subtract 9x from both sides

12x + 17 - 9x = -7

3x + 17 = -7

subtract 17 from both sides

3x= -7-17

3x= -24

divide both sides by 3

x= -24/3

simplify

x= -8

which of the following is a geometric sequence?

Answers

The key thing to look for to determine whether a sequence is geometric is to see whether the ratio between consecutive terms - the number I would multiply one term by to get the next - is constant.

By inspection, we see that the fourth answer choice satisfies that, as [tex]\frac{81}{27}=\frac{27}{9}=\frac{9}{3}=\frac{3}{1}=3.[/tex] Why not the first? We have [tex]2=\frac{12}{6}\ne\frac{6}{2}=3.[/tex]

The third choice is not a geometric sequence, but rather an arithmetic sequence, where the difference between consecutive terms is constant. Just to make sure that it isn't geometric, we compute [tex]\frac{14}{9}\ne\frac{9}{4}.[/tex]

What is the solution to this equation?
–5(s – 30) = –10
A. s = –4
B. s = 8
C. s = 28
D. s = 32

Answers

Answer:

s = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

–5(s – 30) = –10

Divide each side by -5

–5/ -5(s – 30) = –10/-5

s - 30 = 2

Add 30 to each side

s-30+30 = 2+30

s = 32

Answer:

D. s=32

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, we want to find out what s is. In order to do this, we have to get s by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind, everything done to one side, has to be done to the other.

–5(s – 30) = –10

s-30 is being multiplied by -5. The opposite of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by -5.

–5(s – 30)/-5= –10/-5

s-30=-10/-5

s-30=2

30 is being subtracted from s. The opposite of subtraction is addition. Add 30 to both sides.

s-30+30=2+30

s=2+30

s=32

Let's check our solution. Substitute 32 in for s in the original equation. If our solution is correct, the left side of the equation should match the right side.

–5(s – 30) = –10

-5(32-30)=-10

-5(2)= -10

-10=-10

The statement above is true, so we know that s is equal to 32, and D is the correct answer.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students who jog and have one sibling who jogs is 416.

The total number of students who have one sibling who jogs is 1823 + 416 = 2239.

So the probability that a student jogs if they have one sibling who jogs is 416/2239 = 0.186.

The number of students who jog and have two siblings who jog is 400.

The total number of students who have two siblings who jog is 1380 + 400 = 1780.

So the probability that a student jogs if they have two siblings who jog is 400/1780 = 0.225.

Therefore, a student is more likely to jog if they have two siblings who jog than one sibling who jogs.

Answer:

x = 12 in ; Type in 12 in the box

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were to apply triangle formula ; 1/2 * base * height, we would see that length of height ⇒ 10 inches, and length of base ⇒ x inches,

Given an Area of 60 square inches let us substitute into the formula 1/2 * base * height and solve for x;

Area of Triangle = 1/2 * base * height,

60 in^2 = 1/2 * x in * 10 in ⇒ take 1/2 * 10,

60 in^2 = 5 in * x in ⇒ divide either side by 5 in,

12 in = x in ⇒ divide either side by inches,

x = 12 inches,

Solution; x = 12 in

c) 46

A related Question found at brainly (ID 16765143):

A group of 80 students in a college are surveyed. They are asked which of Spanish or French they are studying. 71 of the students surveyed studies at least one of the two languages.

a) Complete the Venn diagram.

b) How many students study only french?

c) How many students study Spanish?

Step-by-step explanation:

Find attached the Venn diagram (1st diagram)

a) Total number of students in college = 80

Since 71 out of the 80 students surveyed studies at least one of the two languages, the number of students that studied neither French nor Spanish = 80-71 = 9

From the venn diagram:

Number of students that study Spanish = 14

Number of students that study French = 25

We need to determine if the values are for Spanish only and French only respectively or for at least Spanish and French respectively.

Estimated value for the middle term = 80-(14+25+9) = 32

From the above calculation, the number of students that study both Spanish and French is 32 and it is more than each set value. This implies the value given in the Venn diagram is for Spanish only and French only respectively.

Let number of students that study both Spanish and French = x

Spanish only = 14

French only = 25

the number of students that studied neither French nor Spanish = 9

Total:

14 + 25 + x + 9 = 80

48 + x = 80

x = Number of students that study both Spanish and French = 32

b) French only = 25

c) Number of  students that study Spanish = students that study at least Spanish

= 14+x = 14+32

Number of  students that study Spanish = 46

The highest and lowest scores on a test taken by 80 students are within 19 points of the average of the exam. The average for this exam was 72. Set up an equation to solve for the highest and lowest scores. Show your original equation and the process used to find the highest and lowest exam score.

Answers

Answer:

The highest score is 91 and the lowest score is 53  

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest and lowest scores on a test taken by 80 students are within 19 points of the average of the exam. The average is 72.

1. The method used to solve this question, is the use of absolute values.

2. Let x be the value that we can use to represent the lowest and highest scores. The equation using absolute values is given as:

| x - 72 | = 19.

Therefore:

x - 72 = 19 (highest score) or

- (x - 72) = 19 (lowest score)

3. We have to find the value of x for which it is the highest or lowest score.

The highest score is given as:

x - 72 = 19

x = 19 + 72

x = 91

For lowest score:

-(x - 72) = 19

-x + 72 = 19

x = 72 - 19

x = 53

The highest score is 91 and the lowest score is 53

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance ,d = 45 km

Time taken, t = 5 hours

To be calculated:

Calculate the average speed of a car ?

Formula used :

Average speed = Distance/Time

Solution:

We know that,

Average speed = Distance/Time

☆ Substituting the values in the above formula, we get

Average speed = 45 km / 5 h

Simplify to create an equivalent expression (2j+1)9-7j

Answers

Answer:

Simplifying

(2j + 1) * 9 + -7j = 0

Reorder the terms:

(1 + 2j) * 9 + -7j = 0

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

9(1 + 2j) + -7j = 0

(1 * 9 + 2j * 9) + -7j = 0

(9 + 18j) + -7j = 0

Combine like terms: 18j + -7j = 11j

9 + 11j = 0

Solving

9 + 11j = 0

Solving for variable 'j'.

Move all terms containing j to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-9' to each side of the equation.

9 + -9 + 11j = 0 + -9

Combine like terms: 9 + -9 = 0

0 + 11j = 0 + -9

11j = 0 + -9

Combine like terms: 0 + -9 = -9

11j = -9

Divide each side by '11'.

j = -0.8181818182

Simplifying

how do I solve this?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Use law of cosine:

c² = a² + b² − 2ab cos C

c² = (√3 − 1)² + (√3 + 1)² − 2(√3 − 1)(√3 + 1) cos 60°

c² = 3 − 2√3 + 1 + 3 + 2√3 + 1 − 2(3 − 1) (½)

c² = 6

c = √6

(ii) Use law of sines:

a / sin A = c / sin C

(√3 − 1) / sin A = √6 / (½√3)

(√3 − 1) / sin A = 2√2

½ (√3 − 1) = √2 sin A

½ (√6 − √2) = 2 sin A

¼ (√6 − √2) = sin A

Use a calculator:

A = 15°

(iii) Use SAS area:

A = ½ ab sin C

A = ½ (√3 − 1) (√3 + 1) sin 60°

A = ½ (3 − 1) (½√3)

A = ½√3

Glen Davis is shooting free throws. Making or missing free throws doesn't change the probability that he will make his next one, and he makes his free throws 74%

Answers

Answer:

0.00456

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Percentage of free throws = 74%

Required:  What is the probability of Glen Davis making none of his next 4 free throw attempts?

Since, there is a free throw 74% of the time, thus, the time he misses = 26% of the time.

To miss four in a row, it is requires to miss the first throw, the second throw, the third throw and also the fourth throw.

Thus, the probabilities of Gien missing will be multiplied.

By using the probability formula -

P ( MMMM) = 26/100 × 26/100 × 26/100 × 26/100

                   = 456976/ 100000000

                   = 0.00456

Therefore, the probability that he will have next 4 free attempts is 0.00456.
