[tex] \huge \purple{ \frac{3x - 1}{5} - \frac{x}{7} = 3}[/tex]

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{3x-1}{5}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{x}{7}[/tex] = 3

Multiply through by 35 ( the LCM of 5 and 7 ) to clear the fractions

7(3x - 1) - 5x = 105 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

21x - 7 - 5x = 105

16x - 7 = 105 ( add 7 to both sides )

16x = 112 ( divide both sides by 16 )

x = 7

To verify the answer substitute x = 7 into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then it is the solution

[tex]\frac{3(7)-1}{5}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{7}{7}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{21-1}{5}[/tex] - 1

= [tex]\frac{20}{5}[/tex] - 1

= 4 - 1

= 3 = right side

Then x = 7 is the solution to the equation

A bird leaves its nest and travels 20 miles per hour downwind for x hours. On the return trip, the bird travels 4 miles per hour slower and has 6 miles left after x hours.

a. What is the distance of the entire trip?

miles

b. How long does the entire trip take?

hours
minutes and
seconds

Answers

Answer:

The correct answers are:

A) 60 miles; and B) 3.375 hours.

Explanation:

We will use the equation d = rt for this.

For the first leg of the trip, the bird travels 20 miles per hour for x hours.  This gives us the equation

d = 20x

For the return trip, the bird travels 4 miles per hour slower, so 20-4 = 16 miles per hour.  He also travels 6 miles less than the return distance, for x hours:

d-6 = 16x

To isolate d, we will add 6 to each side:

d-6+6 = 16x+6

d = 16x+6

We will set the two equations equal to one another, since they both equal d:

20x = 16x+6

Subtract 16x from each side:

20x-16x = 16x+6-16x

4x = 6

Divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 = 6/4

x = 1.5

He travels for 1.5 hours both times.

The first time, 1.5 hours at 20 miles per hour is:

d = 1.5(20) = 30 miles

The original trip is 30 miles.  This makes the entire trip 30(2) = 60 miles.

On the return trip, he travels 30-6 = 24 miles at 16 miles per hour:

24 = 16x

Divide both sides by 16:

24/16 = 16x/16

1.5 = x

If he goes 24 miles in 1.5 hours at 16 miles per hour, we can use a proportion to find the time it takes for the entire return trip:

24/1.5 = 30/x

Cross multiplying,

24*x = 1.5(30)

24x = 45

24x/24 = 45/24

x = 1.875

This gives him a total time of 1.5+1.875 = 3.375 hours

find three consecutive numbers if their sum is 3n

Answers

Answer:

n-1,n,n+1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be x,x+1,x+2

x+x+1+x+2=3n

3x+3=3n

3x=3n-3

x=1/3 (3n-3)=n-1

so mumbers are n-1,n,n+1

The three consecutive numbers are n-1, n, and n+1.

We have to determine, the three consecutive numbers if their sum is 3n.

According to the question,

The consecutive number series can be even as well as odd depending on the first term of the series and the difference between the numbers.

Let, the three consecutive numbers be x, x+1, and x+2.

The sum of three consecutive numbers is equal to 33.

[tex]\rm x + x+1+x+2=3n\\\\3x+3 = 3n \\\\Divided \ by \ 3 \ on \ both \ the \ sides \\\\x +1 = n\\\\x = n-1[/tex]

Therefore,

The first consecutive number is,

[tex]\rm x = n-1[/tex]

The second consecutive number is,

[tex]\rm x+1 = n-1+1 = n\\[/tex]

The third consecutive number is,

[tex]\rm x+2= n-1+2 = n+1\\[/tex]

Hence, The three consecutive numbers are n-1, n, and n+1.

The sum of twice a number and 5 is 25

Answers

Answer:

If the directions say write an equation: 2n + 5 =25

If the directions say also to solve the equation and find the number: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

"The sum" means we're using adding. So what things are we adding together? The question says "twice a number" and 5. Well we've got the 5. And "twice" means two times. And "a number" means we don't know the number yet, so we choose a variable, like n.

"Twice a number" can be written 2n.

So far we have:

2n + 5 is 25

We use = for the "is" in this sentence.

2n + 5 = 25

Now we can solve it.

Subtract 5 from both sides.

2n = 20

Divide by 2 on both sides.

2n/2 = 20/2

n = 10

The number is 10.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 x 2 x 2 = 8

the volume is 8 cm^3

8 x 12 x 10 = 960 cm^3

  -2, -10

A bowl is in the shape of a hemisphere (half a sphere) with a diameter of 8 inches. Find the volume of the bowl. Use 3.14 for pi.

Answers

Answer: 267.947 (or 267.95) inches^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is [tex]\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}[/tex].

To find your radius (r), divide the diameter of 8 inches by 2. The radius is 4 inches.

Plug in your numbers to the volume equation to get [tex]\frac{4}{3} (3.14)(4^3)[/tex]. The first step is to cube 4 (4*4*4) to get 64. Now your equation is [tex]\frac{4}{3}(3.14)(64)[/tex].

Multiply 3.14 and 64 to get 200.96. The equation is now [tex]\frac{4}{3}(200.96)[/tex] or [tex]\frac{4}{3} * \frac{200.96}{1}[/tex].

Multiply the numerators (4 * 200.96) and denominators (1 * 3) to get a final equation of [tex]\frac{803.84}{3}[/tex].

Finally, divide 803.84 by 3 to get the final answer of 267.947 in^3.

Using the function graph given, it is found that:

When a piece-wise function is given, that is, a function that has multiple definitions, the numeric value at x when the definition changes is given by the closed circle.

For function L(x), when x = 2, the closed circle is at y = 7, hence, L(2) = 7.For function R(x), when x = 2, the closed circle is at y = 1, hence, R(2) = 1.
