Which equation is equivalent to the equation 3x - 12 = 24?
A) 15x - 60 = 120
B) 3x = 12
C) 3x = 36
D) x - 4 = 8
E) 12x - 12 = 24

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify the equation, all you need to do is add 12 to both sides to cancel out the -12.

Answer 2

The equations that are equivalent to the equation 3x - 12 = 24 are

3x = 36

x - 4 = 8

15x - 60 = 120

Options A, C, and D are correct.

What is an equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Example: x + 2 = 7 is an equation.

We have,

3x - 12 = 24 ____(1)

From (1)

Adding 12 on both sides.

3x = 24 + 12

3x = 36 ____(2)

From (1)

Dividing 3 into both sides.

x - 4 = 8 ____(3)

From (1)

Multiplying 5 into both sides.

5 (3x - 12) = 5 x 24

15x - 60 = 120 ____(4)

From (2), (3), and (4) we see that,

3x = 36

x - 4 = 8

15x - 60 = 120

Thus,

The equations that are equivalent to the equation 3x - 12 = 24 are

3x = 36

x - 4 = 8

15x - 60 = 120

Options A, C, and D are correct.

In parallelogram CNWK, ZC and ZK are consecutive interior angles. The
measure of ZC is (4a + 7)º and mZK = (7a – 3)º. What is mZC in
degrees?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] J. \:\:71\degree[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

CNWK is a [tex] ||^{gm} [/tex]

[tex] \therefore m\angle C + m\angle K = 180\degree [/tex]

(Adjacent angles of a parallelogram)

[tex] \therefore (4a+7)\degree + (7a-3)\degree = 180\degree\\\\

\therefore (4a+7+7a - 3)\degree = 180\degree\\\\

\therefore (11a+4)\degree = 180\degree\\\\

\therefore 11a+4 = 180\\\\

\therefore 11a= 180-4\\\\

\therefore a= \frac{176}{11}\\\\

\therefore a= 16\\\\

\because m\angle C = (4a+7)\degree\\\\

\therefore m\angle C = (4\times 16+7)\degree\\\\

\therefore m\angle C = (64+7)\degree\\\\

3. Candy Kane Cosmetics (CKC) produces Leslie Perfume, which requires chemicals and labor. Two production processes are available: Process 1 transforms 1 unit of labor and 2 units of chemicals into 3 oz of perfume. Process 2 transforms 2 units of labor and 3 units of chemicals into 5 oz of perfume. It costs CKC $3 to purchase a unit of labor and $2 to purchase a unit of chemicals. Each year, up to 20,000 units of labor and 35,000 units of chemicals can be purchased. Each ounce of Leslie Perfume sells for $5.

Answers

Answer:

using solver, the optimal solution is 6,666P₁ or process 1 should work for 6,666 hours during the year.

Total production = 6,666 x 3 = 19,998 ounces of perfume.

Total revenue = 19,998 x $5 = $99,990

Total costs = (6,666 x $3 per labor hour) + (6,666 x 2 x $2 per unit of chemicals) = $46,662

Operating income = $53,328

Step-by-step explanation:

Variables:

P₁ = number of hours in process 1

P₂ = number of hours in process 2

P₁ yields 3 ounces of perfume

P₂ yields 5 ounces of perfume

both are sold at $5 per ounce

15P₁ + 25P₂

labor usage:

(1P₁ + 2P₂) x $3

3P₁ + 6P₂

chemicals usage:

(2P₁ + 3P₂) x $2

4P₁ + 6P₂

Profit = 15P₁ + 25P₂ - (3P₁ + 6P₂) - (4P₁ + 6P₂) = 8P₁ + 13P₂

so we need to maximize 8P₁ + 13P₂

the constraints are:

3P₁ + 6P₂ ≤ 20,000

4P₁ + 6P₂ ≤ 35,000

P₁, P₂ ≥ 0

using solver, the optimal solution is 6,666P₁ or process 1 should work for 6,666 hours during the year.

Total production = 6,666 x 3 = 19,998 ounces of perfume.

Total revenue = 19,998 x $5 = $99,990

Total costs = (6,666 x $3 per labor hour) + (6,666 x 2 x $2 per unit of chemicals) = $46,662

Operating income = $53,328

Marcus has been running a beverage cart on weekends at the beach, selling water and soda. Last Saturday, he sold 40 bottles of water and 25 sodas, bringing in $110. Sunday, he sold 50 bottles of water and 45 sodas, making $165. What are the prices for each beverage option?

Answers

Answer:

$2 for soda and $1.5 for a bottle of water

Step-by-step explanation:

You start by turning both situations into an equation

Let x represent bottles of water and y represent sodas

Saturday:

[tex]40x+25y=110[/tex]

Sunday:

[tex]50x+45y=165[/tex]

You then want to start by cancelling out the x in this equation, to do that you want 40x to become -50x so you:

50÷40=1.25

You then times the whole equation by -1.25

40x+25y=110

×-1.25

-50x+-31.25y= -137.5

You then add this equation by Sunday's equation

50x+45y=165

-50x+-31.25y=-137.5

          13.75y=27.5

You now want to make the co-efficient of y a whole number (for example 15) so you divide 15/13.75=1.09 recurring

13.75y=27.5

×1.09 recurring

    15y=30

15y/15=30/15

     y=2

Now that we know y = 2

We can use either Saturday or Sunday's equation to figure out the value of [tex]x[/tex]

Let's use Sunday's:

50x+45×2=165

50x+90=165

50x+90-90=165-90

50x/50=75/50

x=1.5

Let's check our answer with Saturday's equation

40×1.5+25×2=110

This equation is correct

Therefore the prices for each beverage option is $1.5 for a bottle of water and $2 for a soda

A store is offering a 30% discount on all jeans. If the regular price of a pair of jeans is $49.99, what is the sale price of the jeans?

Answers

Answer:

Sales price of jeans is $35

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

percentage of discount= 30%

Regular price of jeans= $49.99

Required:

the price of the jeans after the discount is deducted

Step two;

let us solve for the amount of the 30% discount

=30/100*49.99

=0.3*49.99

=14.997

=$15 approx.

Hence the deduction in discount is $15

therefore the sale price after the discount is

=49.99-15

=$35

Answer:

x = - 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y is inversely proportional to x² then the equation relating them is

y = [tex]\frac{k}{x^2}[/tex] ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition y = 8 when x = 3.5 , then

8 = [tex]\frac{k}{3.5^2}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 3.5²

8 × 3.5² = k , that is

k = 98

y = [tex]\frac{98}{x^2}[/tex] ← equation of proportion

When y = [tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex] , then

[tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{98}{x^2}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

8x² = 882 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x² = 110.25 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± [tex]\sqrt{110.25}[/tex] = ± 10.5

Thus x = - 10.5 ← is the negative value of x

is this proportional or not

Given equation:

2(x + 2)² + p(x + 1) = 0The sum of the roots is q1 and the product of the roots is q2

Need to show that q1+q2 = 0

Solution

Bringing the equation into standard form of ax² + bx + c = 0:

2(x + 2)² + p(x + 1) = 0 2x² + 8x + 8 + px + p = 02x² + (p + 8)x + (p + 8) = 0

Sum of the roots:

q1 = - b/a = -(p + 8)/2

Product of the roots:

q2 = c/a = (p + 8)/2

We see that q1 and q2 are opposite numbers, therefore their sum equals zero:

q1 + q2 = -(p + 8)/2 +  (p + 8)/2 = 0
