Mark brainliest please

Answer is 42

Explaination


Consider the given problem :

Let the number be x,

This can be expressed mathematically as ,
One-third of a number written as 1/3 x

One-third of a number, decreased by six expressed as 1/3x -6

then whole expression become,

1/3x -6 = 8

Now, solving for the above expression

Adding 6 both sides, we have,

(1/3)x - 6 = 8
           +6   +6

It becomes 1/3x+6-6=8 +6
1/3x = 14

Multiply both side by 3 , we get,

3* 1/3x = 14*3

x= 42

Thus, the number is 42.

Answers

Answer:

45 inches (choice B)

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of all of the sides of a shape. Since the sides are given this problem is fairly easier than other problems. You simply have to add the numbers together.

8 + 3 + 3 + 6 + 6 + 19 = 45 inches

Answer:

45 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 8 + 3 + 6 + 19 + 6 + 3

What is a solution to the system? y = x^2 + 2x - 15 y – 4x = -12

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-1, -16) or (3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want to solve the system of equations ...

y = x^2 +2x -15y -4x = -12

Substituting the first expression for y into the second equation gives ...

  x^2 +2x -15 -4x = -12

  x^2 -2x -3 = 0 . . . . . . . . add 12

  (x -3)(x +1) = 0 . . . . . . .  factor

Solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero: x = 3, x = -1.

The corresponding values of y are ...

  y = -12 +4x

  y = -12 +4{-1, 3} = -12 +{-4, 12} = {-16, 0}

The solutions to the system are ...

  (x, y) = (-1, -16) or (3, 0)

Two functions are shown in the table below f(x) equals -X squared plus 4X +12 And G(x)
equals X +2

Answer:

[tex]x = -2; x = 5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = -x^2 + 4x + 12[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = x +2[/tex]

Required

For what value of x is: [tex]f(x) = g(x)[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = g(x)[/tex] implies that

[tex]-x^2 + 4x + 12 = x + 2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]-x^2 + 4x -x + 12 -2 = 0[/tex]

[tex]-x^2 + 3x + 10 = 0[/tex]

Expand

[tex]-x^2 + 5x-2x + 10 = 0[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]-x(x - 5)-2(x - 5) = 0[/tex]

Factor out x - 5

[tex](-x - 2)(x - 5) = 0[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]-x - 2 = 0; x - 5 = 0[/tex]

So:

[tex]x = -2; x = 5[/tex]

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]B=100e^{0.592t}[/tex]

c) To solve for t, take the natural logarithm of the above equation:

[tex]\dfrac{B}{100}=e^{0.592t}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \ln \left(\dfrac{B}{100} \right) = \ln e^{(0.592t)}=(0.592t)\ln e[/tex]

Recall that [tex]\ln e = 1[/tex] so we can rewrite the equation above as

[tex]0.592t = \ln \left(\dfrac{B}{100} \right)[/tex]

Finally, solving for t, we get

[tex]t = \frac{1}{0.592} \ln \left(\dfrac{B}{100} \right)[/tex]

There are 6 number so the middle is the  between the 3rd and 4th number

3,4,4,    6,7,15

Take the 3rd and 4th numbers and average

(4+6)/2 = 10/2 = 5

Answer:

median = 5

the ratio of two complementary angles is 8:17. find the measure of the smallest angle.

Answers

Answer:

28.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply each by x

8x : 17x

Complementary angles add to 90

8x+17x = 90

25x = 90

Divide each side by 25

25x/25 = 90/25

x=3.6

The smallest angle is 8x

8*3.6 =28.8

Let's assume that the two angles represent
x
and
y
. We know that
x
+
y
=
90
. For this equation, let's assume
y
is the bigger angle.
y
would equal 8:7x, or to make it simpler,
8
7
x
. We can plug in
8
7
x
for
y
in the original equation to get
x
+
8
7
x
=
90
. Combining like terms, and then saying that
x
=
7
7
, we get
15
7
x
=
90
. We then divide
15
7
on both sides, and get
x
=
42
. In the equation,
y
=
8
7
x
, we add in 42 which makes
y
=
48
. That's how we find out our answer.

B.) 2
C.) -5/2
D.) 4/3 - square root 3/2

Answers

Answer:

The value of f(30) is equal to 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

[tex]f(x)= 10 \sin(x) - 3[/tex]

We need to find the value of f(30)

Put x = 30 in above expression.

So,

[tex]f(x)= 10 \sin(30) - 3\\\\=10\times \dfrac{1}{2}-3\\\\=5-3\\\\=2[/tex]

Hence, the value of f(30) is equal to 2.
