If I think of a number halve it and subtract 2 results is 10.write equations and solve it please

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = number

x/2 - 2 = 10

add 2 to each side to get:

x/2 = 12

cross-multiply to get:

x = 24

Answer 2

Answer:

The equation is (x/2) - 2 = 10The equation solves to x = 24

============================================================

Explanation:

x = the number you think of

x/2 = the result after taking half of that number

(x/2) - 2 = subtract 2 from the previous result

(x/2) - 2 = 10 is the equation to solve

Solving said equation gets us...

(x/2) - 2 = 10

x/2 = 10+2 ... adding 2 to both sides

x/2 = 12

x = 12*2 ..... multiplying both sides by 2

x = 24

Notice how we basically undo everything applied to x. First we divided by 2, then we subtracted 2. So we follow that order in reverse to undo the "minus 2" (ie add 2 to both sides). Then we undo the division to multiply both sides by 2 to end up with the answer x = 24

-----------------

Let's check that answer:

x = 24

x/2 = 24/2 = 12 ... result after taking half of x

(x/2) - 2 = (12)-2 = 10 ... result after subtracting two

We end up with 10 as your teacher mentioned, so it confirms that x = 24 is the answer.

------------------

Here's another way to check:

(x/2) - 2 = 10

(24/2) - 2 = 10

(12) - 2 = 10

10 = 10

We end up with the same thing on both sides, so x = 24 is confirmed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

tan60° = [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] , then

tan60° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 6 )

x = 6[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] → D

Biscuits are sold in in packs of 8. How many packs should you buy if you need 56 biscuits.

Answers

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

you just divide 8/56= 7

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 1:

Start by setting it up with the divisor 56 on the left side and the dividend 8 on the right side like this:

           

 56⟌8    

Step 2:

The divisor (56) goes into the first digit of the dividend (8), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:

   0    

 56⟌8    

Step 3:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (56 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.

      0    

 56⟌8    

   0    

Step 4:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (8 - 0 = 8) and write the answer below.

   0    

 56⟌8    

    -0  

     8    

the answer to 8 divided by 56 calculated using Long Division is: 7

7.

What is the slope (rate of change)
Someone please help me with this im not good with graphs.​

Answers

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To get the slope, you need to divide the rise by the run.

2. Pick two points each on the X-axis and pick corresponding points on the Y axis and then name them y2, x2 and y1, x1.

3. The rise will be y2-y1

4. The run will be x2-x1

5. Therefore, the slope is rise/run = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

In this case, let's take 2 on the X axis as x2 and the corresponding point on the Y axis  as y2 which in this case happens to also be 2.

Now, let's take 1 on the X axis as x1 and the corresponding point on the Y axis  as y1 which is also 1.

now using the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), we get: slope = (2-1)/(2-1) = 1

Help..? Pleaseee , it has to do with the Pythagorean Theorem. But I have no idea how to do it

Answers

Pythagorean Theorem is

a ²+ b ² = c ²

a and b are the shorter sides, while c is the hypotenuse, or longest side. Let’s say the side we are looking for is “b”.

Let’s first rearrange the equation, then sub in.

a ²+ b ² = c ²
b ² = c ²- a ²
b = √ (c ²- a ²)
b = √(17 ²- 15 ²)
b = √(289-225)
b = √ 64
b = 8

Find area of the composite figure..

Answers

Answer:

627square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the composite figure.. = area of triangle + area of parallelogram

Since the triangle is an equilateral triangle;

Area of the triangle = r²sintheta

Area of the triangle = 18²sin60

Area of the triangle = 324sin60

Area of the triangle  = 324(0.8860)

Area of the triangle = 280.584 square in

Area of the triangle = 281 square inches

Area of parallelogram = absintheta

Area of parallelogram = 20(20)sin60

Area of parallelogram = 400(0.8660)

Area of parallelogram = 346.4square inches

Area of parallelogram = 346 square inches

Area of the figure = 346  + 281

Area of the figure  = 627square inches

Jack tool out a 6-year loan for $25,000 to purchase a boat at a 4.5% interest rate. If the interest is compounded monthly, what will he have paid total over the course of the loan?

Answers

Answer:

A = $32,732.58  

A = P + I where

P (principal) = $25,000.00

I (interest) = $7,732.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Time= 6 years

Principal=  $25,000

Rate= 4.5%

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 4.5/100

r = 0.045 rate per year,

Then solve the equation for A

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

A = 25,000.00(1 + 0.045/12)^(12)(6)

A = 25,000.00(1 + 0.00375)^(72)

A = $32,732.58

Answer:

4.9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Resolvemos la pregunta anterior usando la función trigonométrica de seno

sin θ = Opuesto / Hipotenusa

θ = 78 °

Hipotenusa = Longitud de la escalera = 5 m

Opuesto = Distancia sobre el suelo = x

sin 78 = x / 5m

f is inversely proportional to √ g . When f = 8 , g = 25 Work out f when g = 16

Answers

QUESTION :-

f is inversely proportional to √ g . When f = 8 , g = 25 Work out f when g = 16

ANSWER :

By question , f is inversely proportional to square root of g. In mathematical form ,

[tex]\implies f \propto \dfrac{1}{\sqrt g}[/tex]

Let k be constant . So that ,

[tex]\implies f =k \dfrac{1}{\sqrt g}[/tex]

When f = 8 , g is 25. So that ,

[tex]\implies 8= k\dfrac{1}{\sqrt {85}}[/tex]

[tex]\implies k = 8\sqrt{25} [/tex]

Hence the value of constant is 8√25.

So that when g is 16 ,

[tex]\implies f = 8\sqrt{25} \times 1/ \sqrt{16}\\\\\implies f = 8*5 / 4 \\\\\implies \boxed{ f = 10 } [/tex]

Hence the Value of f is 10 .

a dime is dropped from a building at 1.024 ft . if the equation for height as a function of time is h(t)=-16t^2+ initial height where is t is time in seconds and h(t) is height in feet, how many seconds will it take for the dime to hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

The dime hits the ground after 8 sec.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set h(t) = -16t^2 + h(0) equal to 0:  -16t^2 + 1,024 ft = 0, or:

16t^2 = 1,024 ft, or:

 t^2 =  64 ft^2
