Solve for x: 3(x + 1) = −2(x − 1) − 4.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+1) = -2(x-1) - 4 (Use the distributive property on both sides)

3x + 3 = -2x + 2 - 4 (collect like terms on the right side)

3x + 3 = -2x - 2 ( add 2x on both sides)

5x + 3 = -2 ( subtract 3 on both sides)

5x = - 5 (divide by 5 on both sides)

x = -1

Answer 2
3(x+1)=-2(x-1)-4
3x+3=-2x+2-4
3=-5x+2-4
7=-5x+2
5=-5x
-1=x

A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business. The paper will be shipped in small boxes and large boxes. Each small box of paper weighs 35 pounds and each large box of paper weighs 65 pounds. There were 3 times as many small boxes shipped as large boxes shipped and the total weight of all boxes was 850 pounds.

Answers

Answer:

There were 15 small boxes shipped and 5 large boxes shipped.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = the number of small boxes shipped

Let l = the number of large boxes shipped

Each small box weigh 35 pounds, so (s) small boxes weigh 35s pounds. Each large box weigh 65 pounds, so (l) large boxes weigh 65l pounds. Therefore, the total weight 35s + 65l equals 850:

                                                 35s + 65l = 850

Since there were 3 times as many small boxes shipped as large boxes, there were MORE small boxes, so if we multiply 3 by the number of large boxes, we will get the number of small boxes, meaning s equals 3l

                                                  s = 3l

Write System of Equations:

                                                 35s + 65l = 850

                                                     s = 3l

Substitute value of s into the first equation:

35(3l) + 65l = 850

105l + 65l = 850

170l    850

__   =   __  

170      170

  l = 5

Since l = 5, we know 5 large boxes were shipped.

Use l = 5 to solve for s:

s = 3l

s = 3(5)

s = 15

Since s = 15, we know 15 small boxes were shipped.

Find the surface area of the prism​

Answers

Answer:

SA = 5645cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three pairs of congruent rectangles

9cm × 4m; 9cm × 5cm and 4m × 5cm

We know 1m = 100cm, therefore 4m = 400cm

The formula of an area of a rectangle l × w:

A = l · w

Substitute:

A₁ = 9cm · 4m = 9cm · 400cm = 3600cm²

A₂ = 9cm · 5cm = 45cm²

A₃ = 4m · 5cm = 400cm · 5cm = 2000cm²

Calculate the surface area:

SA = A₁ + A₂  + A₃

SA = 3600cm² + 45cm² + 2000cm² = 5645cm²

Answer:

202cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

what is −58+34 any one know?

Answers

Answer:

-24

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

-58 + 34 = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

You know what a number line looks like right? Well, you also know that the negative numbers are to the left of the middle of the line at point 0, and the positives are to the right of 0? So, -58 + 34, you would start at -58 and start counting (adding) 34. You do this by "subtracting" a positive 34 from the negative 58, so basically, you could just ignore the negative sign for now and just subtract the problem like this: 58 - 34 = 24. Since 34 is not greater than 58 and you have not "crossed" the middle (0) to get over to the positive side, the answer is still a negative number as your final answer. So, the answer is -58 + 34 = -24.

REMEMBER: On a number line, when you have a negative number and you have to add, you move to the right, or up (if you are doing a vertical line). When you are subtracting on a number line, you move left, or down (if you are doing a vertical line). P.S. I am using the number line example because this is how I add and/or subtract positives and negatives when I don't have a calculator at hand to give the me the answer.

2/5(5k+35) -8 =12 please helpppppppp

Answers

Answer:

k =3

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5(5k+35) -8 =12

Add 8 to each side

2/5(5k+35) -8+8 =12+8

2/5(5k+35)  =20

Multiply each side by 5/2

5/2 *2/5(5k+35)  =20*5/2

5k+35 = 50

Subtract 35 from each side

5k+35-35 = 50-35

5k = 15

Divide by 5

5k/5 = 15/5

k =3

This question is Incomplete

Complete Question

The bakery bought 4 bags of flour containing 3.5 kg each. 0.475 kg of flour is needed to make a batch of muffins, and 0.65 kg is needed to make a loaf of bread.

a. If 4 batches of muffins and 5 loaves of bread are baked, how much flour will be left? Give your answer in kilograms.

b. The remaining flour is stored in bins that hold 3 kg each. How many bins will be needed to store the flour? Explain your answer.

Answer:

a. 8.85kg of flour is left.

b. 2.95 bins

Step-by-step explanation:

The bakery bought 4 bags of flour containing 3.5 kg each.

Total kg of flour the Bakery bought : 4 × 3.5kg

= 14 kg of flour

0.475 kg of flour is needed to make a batch of muffins

1 batch of muffin = 0.475kg of flour

4 batches of muffins = ???

Cross Multiply

4 batches × 0.475kg/ 1 batch

= 1.9kg of flour was used.

0.65 kg is needed to make a loaf of bread.

1 loaf of bread = 0.65kg of flour

5 loaves of bread = ???

Cross Multiply

5 loaves × 0.65/1 loaf

= 3.25 kg of flour.

Total kg of flour used = 1.9kg + 3.25kg

= 5.15kg of flour.

The amount of flour left = 14kg - 5.15kg

= 8.85kg of flour is left.

b. The remaining flour is stored in bins that hold 3 kg each. How many bins will be needed to store the flour?

3 kg of flour is stored = 1 bin

8.85 kg of flour is stored = x

Cross Multiply

3kg × x = 8.85kg × 1 bin

x = 8.85 kg × 1 bin/3kg

x = 2.95 bins

Answers

Given:

The power generated by an electrical circuit (in watts) as a function of its current x (in amperes) is modeled by

[tex]P(x)=-15x(x-8)[/tex]

To find:

The current which will produce the maximum power.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]P(x)=-15x(x-8)[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=-15x^2+120x[/tex]

Differentiate with respect to x.

[tex]P'(x)=-15(2x)+120(1)[/tex]

[tex]P'(x)=-30x+120[/tex]      ...(i)

To find the extreme point equate P'(x)=0.

[tex]-30x+120=0[/tex]

[tex]-30x=-120[/tex]

Divide both sides by -30.

[tex]x=4[/tex]

Differentiate (i) with respect to x.

[tex]P'(x)=-30(1)+(0)[/tex]

[tex]P'(x)=-30<0[/tex] (Maximum)

It means, the given function is maximum at x=4.

Therefore, the current of 4 amperes will produce the maximum power.

12) Given A(9, 2), B(-1, y)
C.(-5, 16) and D(-8, 11),
find the value of y So
that AB is perpendicular CD

Answers

Answer:

y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

(y-2)/(-1-9)=(y-2)/-10    (11-16)/(-8-(-5))=-5/-3=5/3  Perpendicular slope is -3/5

(y-2)/10=-3/5 cross multiply 5(y-2)=3(10)    5y-10=30   add 10 to both sides

5y=40  divide both sides by 5 and y is equal to 8.

The value of y is 8 if AB is perpendicular CD after using the slope formula.

What is the slope?

The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same).

[tex]\rm m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

It is given that:

A(9, 2), B(-1, y) C.(-5, 16) and D(-8, 11),

AB is the perpendicular CD

Using the slope formula to find the slope between A and B:

(y-2)/(-1-9)

= (y-2)/-10    

(11-16)/(-8-(-5)) =

-5/(-3)

= 5/3  

The perpendicular slope is -3/5

(y-2)/10=-3/5

5(y-2)=3(10)    

5y-10=30  

5y=40  

y = 8

Thus, the value of y is 8 if AB is perpendicular CD after using the slope formula.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-7,9) and (-7,1). Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.​

Answers

Answer:

It is a vertical line

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope using rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the points:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(1 - 9) / (-7 + 7)

-8/0

= undefined

Dividing by 0 gives you an undefined number. This means that the slope is undefined, and the line is a vertical line.

The equation of the line that passes through the points (-7,9) and (-7,1) is x = -7.

The point slope formula is represented below:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

where

m = slope

Let's find slope

(-7, 9)(-7, 1)

m = 1 -9 / -7 - (-7)

m = -8 / 0 = Undefined slope.  

The slope is an undefined slope. Therefore, the line is a vertical line and cannot be written in a slope intercept or point slope form.

The equation of the line can be written as x = c.

where

c = constant

Therefore,

x = -7

The equation is  x = -7
