Solve For X Algebra Help

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=24

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the following proportion:

[tex]\frac{2}{10}=\frac{3}{x-9}[/tex]

And we want to solve for x.

First, let's reduce [tex]\frac{2}{10}[/tex], as reducing fractions typically makes the process easier

[tex]\frac{2}{10}[/tex] is the same as [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

So:

[tex]\frac{1}{5}=\frac{3}{x-9}[/tex]

We can't do anything to [tex]\frac{3}{x-9}[/tex], but that's okay.

Now we can cross multiply, as this is a proportion

Multiply x-9 by 1 and 3 by 5

1(x-9)=3(5)

Multiply

x-9=15

Now this is an equation

Our goal is to isolate x on one side

So let's add 9 to both sides to remove it from the left side

x-9=15

 +9 +9

_________

x=24

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply:

2(x - 9) = 2x - 18

3(10) = 30

2x-18 = 30

   +18   +18

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

  2x = 48

 -----   -----

   2       2

     x = 24

Hope this helped.

and then B and C leaves. In how many days will A finish the remaining work?​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]9\ days[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]We\ are\ given:\\No.\ of\ days\ A\ takes\ to\ complete\ some\ amount\ of\ work=15\ days\\No.\ of\ days\ B\ takes\ to\ complete\ the\ same\ amount\ of\ work=12\ days\\No.\ of\ days\ C\ takes\ to\ complete\ the\ same\ amount\ of\ work\ as\ A\ and\ B\ =20\ days\\[/tex]

[tex]Now,\\We\ can\ say\ that\ an\ object\ has\ to\ complete\ \frac{1}{n}th\ of\ the\\ work\ daily,\ to\ complete\ the\ work\ in\ n\ number\ of\ days.\ This\ is\ however\\ only\ true\ if\ the\ object\ covers\ equal\ amounts\ of\ work\ each\ day.[/tex]

[tex]Here,\\In\ 1\ day,\\A\ would\ cover\ \frac{1}{15}th\ of\ the\ work.\\B\ would\ cover\ \frac{1}{12}th\ of\ the\ work.\\C\ would\ cover\ \frac{1}{20}th\ of\ the\ work.[/tex]

[tex]Now,\\We\ are\ also\ given\ that:\\They\ work\ together\ for\ 2\ days\ on\ the\ same\ work.\\Hence,\\Total\ work\ done\ in\ 1\ day\ by\ A,B\ and\ C=\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{20}=\frac{4+5+3}{60}=\frac{12}{60}=\frac{1}{5}\\Hence, Total\ work\ done\ in\ 2\ days\ by\ A,B\ and\ C=2*\frac{1}{5}=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Hence,\\The\ portion\ of\ the\ total\ work\ left=1-\frac{2}{5}=\frac{5-2}{5}=\frac{3}{5}\\So,\\Since\ A\ has\ to\ complete\ \frac{3}{5}th\ of\ the\ work,\ lets\ compute\ the\ no.\ of\ days\ it\ takes\ to\ do\ so.\\Hence,\\No.\ of\ days\ A\ takes\ to\ complete\ the\ entire\ work=15\ days\\Hence,\\No.\ of\ days\ A\ takes\ to\ complete\ \frac{3}{5}th\ of\ the\ entire\ work=15*\frac{3}{5}=9\ days[/tex]

Answer:

9 days

Step-by-step explanation:

A does in 15days, so A in 1day does 1/15part

B does in 12days, so B in 1day does 1/12part

C does in 20days, so C in 1day does 1/20part

So. A+B+C in 1 day-- 1/15+1/12+1/20=(4+5+3)/60= 12/60=1/5 and in 2days 2/5 part..hence remaining work=1/1–2/5=(5–2) =3/5part.

Now A in 1/15 part takes 1day

So, in 3/5 part 15×3/5 = 9 days.

pls help G, H, I, J pls explain​

Answers

Part G

The two angles ABD and DBC form a straight line, so the angles add to 180 degrees.

Let's solve for x.

angle ABD + angle DBC = 180

(0.5x+20) + (2x-10) = 180

2.5x+10 = 180

2.5x = 180-10

2.5x = 170

x = 170/2.5

x = 68

Then we'll use this to find angle ABD

angle ABD = 0.5*x + 20

angle ABD = 0.5*68 + 20

angle ABD = 34 + 20

angle ABD = 54

Answer:  54 degrees

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

Part H

Use the value of x we found back in part G to find the measure of angle DBC

angle DBC = 2x - 10

angle DBC = 2(68) - 10

angle DBC = 136 - 10

angle DBC = 126

An alternative is to subtract the measure of angle ABD from 180

angle ABD + angle DBC = 180

angle DBC = 180 - (angle ABD)

angle DBC = 180 - 54

angle DBC = 126

Answer: 126 degrees

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

Part I

This time, the two angles add to 90 degrees as shown by the square corner marker.

(angle XYW) + (angle WYZ) = 90

(1.25x - 10) + (0.75x + 20) = 90

2x + 10 = 90

2x = 90-10

2x = 80

x = 80/2

x = 40

which then leads to,

angle XYW = 1.25*x - 10

angle XYW = 1.25*40 - 10

angle XYW = 50 - 10

angle XYW = 40

Answer:  40 degrees

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

Part J

We can subtract the result of part I from 90 degrees to get the answer

angle WYZ = 90 - (angle XYW)

angle WYZ = 90 - 40

angle WYZ = 50

Or we could plug the x value x = 40 into the expression for angle WYZ

angle WYZ = 0.75*x + 20

angle WYZ = 0.75*40 + 20

angle WYZ = 30 + 20

angle WYZ = 50

Answer:  50 degrees

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

Summary:

The answers we found were

G.  54 degreesH.  126 degreesI.  40 degreesJ.  50 degrees

Answer:

G. m∠ABD = 54°

H. m∠DBC = 126°

I. m∠XYW = 40°

J. m∠WYZ = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ABD and ∠DBC are supplementary angles. This means their angles have a sum of 180°.

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x+20+2x-10=180\\\frac{5}{2}x+10=180\\\frac{5}{2}x=170\\x=68[/tex]

m∠ABD = 1/2(68) + 20 = 34 + 20 = 54

m∠DBC = 2(68) - 10 = 136 - 10 = 126

Same concept for ∠XYW and ∠WYZ only this time they are complementary angles. This means their angles have a sum of 90°.

[tex]1\frac{1}{4}x-10+\frac{3}{4}x+20=90\\2x+10=90\\2x=80\\x=40[/tex]

m∠XYW = 1 1/4(40) - 10 = 50 - 10 = 40

m∠WYZ = 3/4(40) + 20 = 30 + 20 = 50

what type of variation is this relationship

Answers

Answer: C) Partial variation; $375

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

Explanation:

We don't have a direct variation because the initial cost isn't $0

The equation for this situation is y = 25x+375, where x is the number of yearbooks purchased and y is the total cost.

Notice how this line doesn't go through the origin. All direct variation graphs are straight lines through the origin.

So that's why we have partial variation instead.

The initial cost is simply the set up cost, aka the cost when x = 0. That initial cost is $375. The initial cost is located at the y intercept.

From that initial cost, we then add on multiples of $25 depending on how many yearbooks are purchased.

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

In short, because the initial cost is $375, which is some nonzero value, this means we don't have direct variation. Instead, we have partial variation.

The graph of which functions has an axis of symmetry at x = -1/4?

Answers

Answer:

2x^2 + x - 1

If I did anything you didn't understand let me know so I can explain.  

Step-by-step explanation:

All of them are quadratics so let's use that.

The first one is 2x^2 + x - 1.  To find the axis of symmetry the strategy is usually to find the two zeroes of a quadratic and pick the number between them.  Something to  notice though is that 2x^2 + x - 1 is just 2x^2 + x sshifted down 1, so they both have the same axis of symmetry.  So I am going to ignore the constant, because then finding the zeroes is much much simpler.  I am going to do this with all opions.

So 2x^2 + x - 1 I am just going to use 2x^2 + x.  If you factor out an x you get x(2x + 1)  So now we have it in factored form and we know the zeroes are 0 and -1/2.  The number directly in between these is -1/4, so the axis of symmetry is x = -1/4.  I don't know if there is only one with that axis of symmetry so i am going to check the rest.

2x^2 - x + 1 means we are only going to look at 2x^2 - x.  factoring we get x(2x - 1) so the zeroes are 0 and 1/2, so the axis of symmetry is at 1/4.

x^2 + 2x - 1 we only use x^2 + 2x.  Factored form is x(x+2) so zeroes are 0 and -2 whichh means axis of symmetry is -1

x^2 - 2x + 1 has the same axis of symmetry as x^2 - 2x, which has zeros at 0 and 2 so the axis of symmetry is at 1.

So yep, it was just the first one.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a)  f(x) = 2x^2 +x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

For ax^2 +bx +c, the axis of symmetry is x = -b/(2a). For the offered answer choices, the axes of symmetry are ...

  a) x = -1/(2·2) = -1/4 . . . . . . the function we're looking for

  b) x = -(-1)/(2·2) = 1/4

  c) x = -2/(2·1) = -1

  d) x = -(-2)/(2·1) = 1

The function with axis of symmetry x = -1/4 is f(x) = 2x^2 +x -1.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that I will be using a, b, and y instead of their Greek counterparts.

First, we know that sin(c+d) = sin(c)cos(d) + cos(d)sin(a) and sin(c-d) = sin(c)cos(d) - cos(d)sin(a). We can apply these here to get

sin(b+y) = sin(b)cos(y) + cos(b)sin(y)

sin(b-y) = sin(b)cos(y) - cos(b)sin(y)

sin(a+y) = sin(a)cos(y) + cos(a)sin(y)

sin(a-y) = sin(a)cos(y) - cos(a)sin(y)

Plugging these into our equation, we get

(sin(b)cos(y) + cos(b)sin(y) - (sin(b)cos(y) - cos(b)sin(y)))

/

(sin(a)cos(y) + cos(a)sin(y)-(sin(a)cos(y) - cos(a)sin(y)))

=

2cos(b)sin(y) / 2cos(a)sin(y)

= cos(b)sin(y)/cos(a)sin(y)

= cos(b)/cos(a)

Next, we can see that a+b = π, so we can subtract b from both sides to get a = π -b. Plugging that in for a in our equation, we get

cos(b) / cos(π-b)

After that, we know that cos(c-d) = cos(c)cos(d) - sin(c)sin(d). Plugging that in here, we get

cos(π-b) = cos(π)cos(b) - sin(π)sin(b)

= -cos(b) + 0

= -cos(b)

Plugging that back into our equation, we get

cos(b) / -cos(b) = -1

Help me with this question please‼️‼️

Answers

Answer: 1/2  (choice C)

Explanation:

The gradient is the same as the slope

m = slope

m = rise/run

m = (change in y)/(change in x)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (6-1)/(6 - (-4))

m = (6-1)/(6+4)

m = 5/10

m = 1/2

In decimal form, this becomes 0.5

A slope of 1/2 means we move up 1 and to the right 2 units each time to generate points along the diagonal line.

A positive slope goes uphill as we move to the right (due to the positive rise value).

Answer:

One way to find the gradient is using the expression :

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{y_{B} - y_{A}}{x_{B} - x_{A}}[/tex]

So [tex]m = \frac{6 - 1}{6- (-4)} =\frac{5}{10} =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Table I

Given function is,

f(x) = [tex]b^x[/tex]

From the table attached,

For x = 0.827, value of function f(0.827) = 5,

f(0.827) = [tex]b^{0.827}[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]b^{0.827}=5[/tex]

[tex]\text{log}(b^{0.827})=\text{log}(5)[/tex]

0.827[log(b)] = log(5)

log(b) = 0.8452

b = [tex]10^{0.8452}[/tex]

b = 7

Therefore, function 'f' will be,

f(x) = [tex]7^x[/tex]

For f(x) = 9,

9 = [tex]7^x[/tex]

log(9) = log([tex]7^x[/tex])

log(9) = x[log(7)]

x = 1.129

Table II

Given function is g(x) = [tex]\text{log}_b(x)[/tex]

From the given table,

For x = 7, g(x) = 1

1 = [tex]\text{log}_b(7)[/tex]

[tex]b^1=7[/tex]

b = 7

Therefore, the function 'g' will be,

g(x) = [tex]\text{log}_7(x)[/tex]
