Solve 3a – 8= 5a + 12

Show your work. (please)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

3a – 8 = 5a + 12

3a – 8 + 8 = 5a + 12 + 8

3a = 5a + 20

3a - 5a = 5a + 20 - 5a

- 2a = 20

[tex]\dfrac{-2a}{-2}=\dfrac{20}{-2}[/tex]

a = - 10

Answer: Come on, don’t people learn these things in school!

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

C. y ≤ 0

D. 18 bags of chips and 6 jars of salsa

Step-by-step explanation:

It is C because, it is over the x axis and it covers all the negative y's.

__________________________________________________________

2.5x + 4y ≤ 60

2.5(10) + 4(2) ≤ 60

25 + 8 ≤ 60

33 ≤ 60

It fits so A doesn't work

2.5x + 4y ≤ 60

2.5(20) + 4(2) ≤ 60

50 + 8 ≤ 60

58 ≤ 60

It fits so B doesn't work

2.5x + 4y ≤ 60

2.5(14) + 4(5) ≤ 60

35 + 20 ≤ 60

55 ≤ 60

It fits so C doesn't work

2.5x + 4y ≤ 60

2.5(18) + 4(6) ≤ 60

45 + 24 ≤ 69

It doesn't fit therefore, your answer would be D. 18 bags of chips and 6 jars of salsa.

Find slope
11x - 6y = -36

Answers

Answer:

11/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To isolate the y on one side of the equation, you must first subtract 11x from both sides. Then the equation becomes -6y = -11x - 36.

Then you must divide both sides by -6 to isolate the y. The coefficient of the variable x becomes -11/-6, which is just 11/6.

What is the question??

Convert 3 weeks to hours. Use a lable.

Answers

Answer: 504 hours.

Step-by-step explanation: I am assuming it says, use a table not a lable.

Well, I can't make a table, so I will tell you where to put everything in a table.

We start with placing one day, one day is 24 hours. One day goes on the top, 24 hours goes on the bottom. Then, we know there are 7 days in a week, so we jump ahead, we multiply 24 by 7 and 1 by 7.

24 x 7 = 168 and 1 x 7 = 7

So for every week, it is 168 hours. Now we need to find three weeks. So we multiply 7 x 3 to get the days. which is 21. Now we need to multiply the hours by  the 3 weeks. So we multiply 168 by 3 which is 504.

So 504 hours are in 3 weeks.

Answer:

1) 2x-3 = x -3 + x

2) 2x - 6 = -6 + 2x

3) [tex]\frac{3}{5}-\frac{13}{5}=-6.9+4.9[/tex]

4) 3x+0 = 3x

5)  [tex]\frac{5}{3}-x+\frac{1}{3}=-\frac{3}{2}x+2+\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to match each expression on the left with an equivalent expression on the right

The expressions are equivalent if the have the same results.

1) 2x - 3

Looking at the options the best match is:

x -3 + x

When solve we get:

2x-3

So, 2x-3 = x -3 + x

2) 2x - 6

Looking at the options the best match is:

-6 + 2x

Because according to commutative property: a+b = b+a

So, 2x - 6 = -6 + 2x

3) [tex]\frac{3}{5}-\frac{13}{5}[/tex]

First simplifying the given expression:

[tex]\frac{3}{5}-\frac{13}{5}\\=\frac{3-13}{5}\\=\frac{-10}{5}\\=-2[/tex]

Looking at the options, -6.9+4.9 = -2

So, [tex]\frac{3}{5}-\frac{13}{5}=-6.9+4.9[/tex]

4) 3x + 0

Looking at the options the best match is:

3x

Because, adding 0 in 3x will result in 3x

So, 3x+0 = 3x

5) [tex]\frac{5}{3}-x+\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

First simplifying:

[tex]\frac{5}{3}-x+\frac{1}{3}\\=\frac{5-3x+1}{3}\\=\frac{6-3x}{3}\\= \frac{3(2-x)}{3}\\=2-x[/tex]

Now, solving the option: [tex]-\frac{3}{2}x+2+\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{-3x+4+1x}{2}\\=\frac{-2x+4}{2}\\=\frac{2(-x+2)}{2}\\=-x+2\\or\\=2-x[/tex]

So, [tex]\frac{5}{3}-x+\frac{1}{3}=-\frac{3}{2}x+2+\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]

The body of a dump truck is raised to empty a load of dirt. How high is the 10 inch body from the frame when it is tipped upward at 45 degrees

Answers

Answer:

7.071inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up is a right angled triangle

Given 'angle of elevation = 45 degrees

The length of the frame = 10in (hypotenuse)

Required

Height of the truck h (opposite)

Using the SOH trig identity

sin theta = opposite/hyp

sin 45 = h/10

h = 10sin45

h = 10(0.7071)

h = 7.071 in

Hence the height of the truck is 7.071inches

Answer:

7.2 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that at a loss of 10 percent which is 90% price, we have sugar sold at 5.4 rupees per k.g

Hence, at 100 percent we have => 5.4 × (100 ÷ 90 )= 6 rupees per kg.

Therefore, at 100 percent, where we have 6 rupees per kg, to make a profit of 20% we have

6 rupees per kg x 120% = 6 × 1.2 = 7.2 rupees per kg.

Hence, the final answer is 7.2 rupees per kg to make a profit of 20%.
