What is an easy method to solve for x in a basic algebra problem? Example: 3x + 5x + 8x = 32

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5x  + 8x = 32

taking x common,

(3 + 5 + 8)x = 32

16x = 32

x = 32 / 16

x = 2

Answer 2

Answer: See below

Explanation:

The ultimate method of solving algebra problems will be trying any operations to isolate x, which then gives the value of x.

Operations include combining like terms, dividing and multiplying terms, and etc.

I would be solving [3x + 5x + 8x = 32] as an example.

Solve:

Given

3x + 5x + 8x = 32

Combine like terms through addition

8x + 8x = 32

16x = 32

Divide 16 on both sides to isolate x

16x / 16 = 32 / 16

[tex]\boxed {x=2}[/tex]

When a new cellphone is put on the market, the demand each month can be described by the function C of t is equal to negative square root of the quantity t squared plus 4 times t minus 12 end quantity plus 3 where C (t) represents the demand of the cellphone (measured in millions of people) and the time, t, is measured in months. Which of the following solution(s) are valid for a positive demand?

Answers

A function is positive where it is above the x-axis

The valid solution for positive demand are; t = 3, and t = 2

The reason the above values are correct is as follows:

Known parameters:

The given function of the demand is; [tex]C(t) = \mathbf{ -\sqrt{t^2 + 4 \times t - 12} +3}[/tex]

Where;

C(t) = The demand of the cellphone (in millions of people)

t = The number of months

The condition positive demand is C(t) ≥ 0

Therefore;

[tex]-\sqrt{t^2 + 4 \times t - 12} +3 \geq 0[/tex]

[tex]-\sqrt{t^2 + 4 \times t - 12} \geq -3[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{t^2 + 4 \times t - 12} \leq 3[/tex]

t² + 4·t - 12 ≤ 9

t² + 4·t - 12 - 9 ≤ 0

t² + 4·t - 21 ≤ 0

(t - 3) × (t + 7) ≤ 0

∴ t ≤ 3, or t ≥ -7

At t = 2 < 3, we have;

C(2) = -√(2² + 4×2 - 12) + 3 = 3

At t = 1 < 3, the function is; C(1) = -√(1² + 4×1 - 12) + 3 (Is undefined)

Therefore, the valid solution for positive demand are;

t = 3, and t = 2

If R is the midpoint of OS , RS = 2x - 4, ST = 4x – 1, and RT = 8x – 43, find QS.

Answers

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerical length of QS is 128.

We have a Line Segment QT and a point R lies on the midpoint of QS.

We have to determine length of QS.

What is Mid - Point of a line?

The mid - point of a line is a point that divides it into two parts of equal lengths.

According to question, we have -

RS = 2x - 4

ST = 4x – 1

RT = 8x – 43

Since, R is the midpoint of QS -

QR = RS = 2x - 4

QS = QR + RS = 2 x QR = 2(2x - 4)

Now -

ST = RT - RS

ST = 8x - 43 - 2x + 4

ST = 6x - 39

and

ST = 4x - 1     [Given]

Therefore -

6x - 39 = 4x - 1

6x - 4x = - 1 + 39

2x = 38

x = 19

Now -

QS = QR + RS = 2RS

QS = 2(2x - 4) = 2( 2 x 19 - 4) = 2(38 - 4) = 2 x 34 = 128

Therefore -  QS = 128

Hence, the numerical length of QS is 128.

X' (-2, 8)

Y' (-4, -4)

Z' (3, -4)

If (x - 4) varies inversely as (y + 3) and x = 8 when y = 2, what is x when y = - 1?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=14[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If two values are inversely proportional, their product must be maintained. That way, if one value goes up, the other goes down by the same extent.

Therefore, if [tex](x-4)[/tex] and [tex](y+3)[/tex] vary inversely, their product will be the same for all values of [tex]x-4[/tex] and [tex]y+3[/tex].

Let [tex]x=8[/tex] and [tex]y=2[/tex] as given in the problem. Substitute values:

[tex](8-4)(2+3)=(4)(5)=20[/tex]

Hence, the maintained product is [tex]20[/tex].

Thus, we have the following equation:

[tex](x-4)(y+3)=20[/tex]

Substitute [tex]y=-1[/tex] to find the value of [tex]x[/tex] when [tex]y=-1[/tex]:

[tex](x-4)(-1+3)=20,\\(x-4)(2)=20,\\x-4=10,\\x=10+4=\boxed{14}[/tex]

5 ft
4ft
3ft
6ft​

Answers

Answer: First Choice. 5ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we need to know the idea of the Pythagorean theorem.

Since a building is straight, the base angle is a right angle, thus it would be a right triangle.

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

**NOTE** Please refer to the attachment below for the figure. (I drew it, so if it was not clear and understandable for you, please tell me.)

Solve:

Given information

a = 12 ft

c = 13 ft

b = unknow base length

Given formula for Pythagorean Theorem

a² + b² = c²

Substitute values into the formula

12² + b² = 13²

Simplify exponents

144 + b² = 169

Subtract 144 on both sides

144 + b² - 144= 169 - 144

b² = 25

Square root both sides

√b² = √25

Answer: c = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4 (3 + c) + c = c + 4

Expand parentheses and apply the distributive property

4 · 3 + 4 · c + c = c + 4

12 + 4c + c = c + 4

Combine like terms

12 + (4c + c) = c + 4

12 + 5c = c + 4

Subtract 12 on both sides

12 + 5c - 12 = c + 4 - 12

5c = c - 8

Subtract c on both sides

5c - c = c - 8 - c

4c = -8

Divide 4 on both sides

4c / 4 = -8 / 4

[tex]\boxed{c=-2}[/tex]

Answers

The miles previously covered by algae is 6 miles

let m represent the miles of the coastline covered by algae before the clean-up  

fraction of miles covered after the clean-up = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] x m = [tex]\frac{1}{3}m[/tex]

miles covered after the clean-up = 2 miles

[tex]\frac{1}{3}m[/tex] = 2 miles

to determine the value of m, make m the subject of the formula.

multiply both sides of the equation by 2

m = 2 miles x 3

m = 6 miles

Sin A 4/5.

Find
COSA + tan A

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite side (the one not connected to A) = 4

The hypotenuse is 5

The adjacent side needs to be found for the cosine and the tangent.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = opposite side = 4

b = adjacent side = ?

c = hypotenuse = 5

4^2 + x^2 = 5^2

16 + x^2 = 25          

x^2 = 25 - 16

x^2 = 9

x = sqrt(9)

x = 3

cos(A) = adjacent / hypotenuse = 3/5

Tan(A) = opposite / adjacent = 4/3

cos(A) + tan(A) = 3/5 + 4/3

cos(A) + tan(A) = 9/15 + 20/15 = 29/15

Given: SinA = 4/5

To find: CosA + TanA

Solution:
16/25 + Cos²A = 1 [Sin²A + Cos²A = 1]
Cos²A = 1 - 16/25
Cos²A = 25 - 16/25
Cos²A = 9/25
CosA = 3/5
We know that TanA = SinA/CosA
TanA = (4/5)/(3/5)
TanA = 4/3
CosA + TanA = 3/5 + 4/3 = 29/15

Ryan and Cody are selling cookie dough for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy packages of white chocolate chip cookie dough and packages of double chocolate cookie dough. Ryan sold 6 packages of white chocolate chip cookie dough and 12 packages of double chocolate cookie dough for a total of $204. Cody sold 7 packages of white chocolate chip cookie dough and 7 packages of double chocolate cookie dough for a total of $147. What is the cost each of one package of white chocolate chip cookie dough and one package of double chocolate cookie dough?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

white: $8double: $13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w and d represent the costs of white chocolate chip cookie dough and double chocolate chip cookie dough, respectively.

  6w +12d = 204 . . . . . . Ryan's sale

  7w +7d = 147 . . . . . . . . Cody's sale

We can divide out the common factor to put these equations into standard form:

  w +2d = 34

  w +d = 21

Subtracting the second of these equations from the first, we get ...

  (w +2d) -(w +d) = (34) -(21)

  d = 13

Using the second equation, we can find w:

  w = 21 -d = 21 -13 = 8

The costs of the chocolate chip cookie dough packages are ...

  white: $8

  double: $13
