The product of five and a number, increased by 9 is equal to fifteen less than three times then
number. Write an equation, solve, and find the number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number.

The product of 5 and x increased by 9 is equal to 15 less than 3 times x.

5x + 9 = 3x - 15.

We can isolate x, getting (5-3)x = -15-9

Then we can solve:

2x = -24

x = -12.

Answer 2

The required number is -12.

What is an equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal.

Given that, The product of five and a number, increased by 9 is equal to fifteen less than three times then number.

Let x be the number.

Establishing the equation,

5x + 9 = 3x - 15.

(5-3)x = -15-9

Then we can solve:

2x = -24

x = -12.

Hence, the number is -12

Only simplify don’t actually solve and if u give me the right answer first I’ll give u the crown

Answers

So, there’s a few problems here.
Firstly, is the w meant to represent the second number as an exponent? because if so, the correct symbol is (^) and it should look like (40^4) and (8^6). Or is the w meant to be a variable and you need to simplify (40*w*4) and (8*w*6).

Secondly, if you did mean you need (40^4) and (8^6) to be simplified, the only way something can be simplified without being solved is if the equation has a variable(letter) in it such as x or y.

To simplify something means combining the terms until there is nothing left you are able to do. So solving the problems would be simplifying them since they have no variables

If you did mean (40^4) and (8^6) to be simplified, the answers would be
40^4= 2,560,000
8^6=262,144

Solve the system of linear equations in two variables by elimination or substitution.
2x + 4y = 4
2x - y=1

Answers

Answer:

x = 0.8    y = 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve one of the equations for a single variable, I chose the 2nd equation and solved for the variable y and I got y = 2x -1.

Next plug in the value for y into the 1st equation, I got :

2x + 4 ( 2x - 1) = 4

Next solve for x by first distributing the 4 to the (2x-1), this becomes (8x -4) then add like terms and move the -4 to the other side of the equation by addition. I got 10x =8 then I divided 8/10 to solve for x and I got 0.8.

Now plug the value 0.8 in for x in the 2nd equation : 2*(0.8) - y = 1

Then solve for y by subtracting 2*(0.8) or 1.6 from 1 and I got -0.6, lastly divide by -1 to solve for y.

A store sells three varieties of cheese cheddar, Gouda, and Swiss. Each variety of cheese is available in two different styles shredded or sliced. How many possible outcomes for the variety and style of cheese are there?

Answers

Answer:

6 possible outcomes

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to make use of the Fundamental Counting Principle formula.

The formula counting principle states that when we are given two or more distinct events, in order to get the total number of possible outcomes, we multiply such events together.

In the above question, we are given two events.

Event 1

3 varieties of cheese: Cheddar, Gouda, and Swiss.

Event 2

2 styles of cheese: Shredded and Sliced

The possible outcomes for the variety and style of cheese = Event 1 × Event 2

= 3 × 2

6 possible outcomes.

These 6 Possible outcomes are listed below:

1) Cheddar cheese , Shredded

2) Cheddar cheese , Sliced

3) Gouda cheese , Shredded

4) Gouda cheese , Sliced

5) Swiss cheese , Shredded

6) Swiss cheese , Sliced

Answer:

40 degrees clockwise

140 degrees counterclockwise

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangle is rotated in Figure B. The angle of rotation is 40 degrees. If we rotate a rectangle at an angle of 40 degrees clockwise then wit will be at the position as shown in figure B. The 90 degrees angle is perpendicular angle. Rectangle will not reach the desired position. If we rotate the rectangle at 140 degrees counterclockwise this will be the figure B representation. The rotation to 90 degree counterclockwise is either not suitable for the desired rectangle position.

Find the equation of the line below.

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is y = mx + b

We can plug in values for x and y,:

x = 1, y = 2

2 = m + b  <- equation 1

x = 4 y = 8

8 = 4m + b <- equation 2

We can multiply equation 1 by 4, getting 8 = 4m + 4b.

We can them subtract equation 1 by equation 2, getting 3b = 0.

Therefore, b = 0.

We can use the equation 2 = m + b and find m:

Since b = 0, m = 2.

The equation is then y = 2x.
