2x - 3 = -5

What is X?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3 = -5

2x - 3 +3= -5+3

2x=-2

x=-1

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, we have to get x by itself.

2x - 3 = -5

Add 3 to both sides

2x - 3 +3 = -5 +3

2x = -2

Divide by 2 to both sides

2x ÷2 = -2 ÷2

x = -1

find the quotient 17 ÷ 6 8/10​

Answers

The ratio of EQUATION the outcome is (17/6)/(8/10) = 3.5416667.

What in mathematics is a quotient?

The quotient is the result of dividing two numbers by each other. As in the case of 8 4 = 2, when the division produced the number 2, the outcome is the quotient. The dividend is 8 and the divisor is 4.

based on the available facts;

Divide: 17/6 : 8/10

= 17/6· 10/8

= 17 · 10/6 · 8

= 170/48

= 85/ 24

= 85/24

When two fractions are divided, the first fraction is multiplied by the second fraction's reciprocal value. Finding the reciprocal of the second fraction is the first sub-step. For example, the reciprocal of 8/10 is 10/8. Multiply the two numerators after that. Multiply the two denominators after that. The intermediate step that comes after canceling by a common factor of 2 yields 85/24.

Therefore, eight tenths of seventeen sixths equal eighty-five twenty-fourths.

Expand to have;

0.75(8) + 0.75e = 2-1.25e

6 + 0.75e = 2 - 1.5e

6-2 = -1.5e - 0.75e

Evaluate the left hand side to find the value of a in the equation in simplest form.

Answers

The value of a in the equation in the simplest form will be 17 / 6.

We are given an equation:

x³ / x^(1/6) = x^(a)

We need to evaluate the left hand side to find the value of a in the equation in simplest form.

We know that:

x^ (a) / x^ (b) = x^ ( a - b)

Using this, we get that:

x^ (3 - 1/6) = x^ (a)

x^ (17/6) = x^ (a)

By comparing the bases, we get the value of a as:

a = 17 / 6.

Therefore, the value of a in the equation in the simplest form will be 17 / 6.

Find the missing coordinate (x,5) and (3,3) m= 1/2

Answers

The missing coordinate of the points is 7

What are linear equations?

Linear equations are equations that have constant average rates of change. Note that the constant average rates of change can also be regarded as the slope or the gradient

How to determine the missing coordinate?

The given parameters are

Slope, m = 1/2

Points (x1, y1) = (x, 5) and (x2, y2) = (3, 3)

The slope of a linear equation is calculated as

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

So, we have

1/2 = (3- 5)/(3 - x)

Evaluate the differences

So, we have

1/2 = -2/(3 - x)

Cross multiply

So, we have

3 - x = -4

This gives

x = 3 + 4

Evaluate the sum

x = 7

Hence, the missing coordinate of the points is 7

Scott rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $18.99, and there was an additional charge of 92 cents for each mile driven. Scott had to pay $150.55 when he returned the truck. For how many miles did he drive the truck?

I need to find how many miles ​

Answers

Answer:

143 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of miles

Let y = total cost

150.55 = .92x + 18.99  Multiply all the way through by 100 to clear the decimal

15055 = 92x + 1899  Subtract 1899 from both sides

13156 = 92x  Divide both sides by 92

143 = x

A researcher who is interested in the behavior of chimps believes that temperature is related to aggression in this species of animal. She goes out to her local zoo during a particular weekend and adjusts the temperature of their climate-controlled habitat to 50-degrees, 70-degrees and 90-degrees Fahrenheit over the course of three days, noting the number of aggressive acts she observes at each temperature level.
A) What is the independent variable?
B) What is the dependent variable?
C) Is the dependent variable discrete or continuous?
D) What scale of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio) is used to measure the dependent variable? What research method is being used (experimental or observational), and why?

Answers

The experimental research conducted by the scientist takes into account the following factors:

a)The change in temperature is the independent variable.

b) The effect of temperature on the chimp's act of aggression is the dependent variable.

c)The dependent variable is continuous.

d)The scale of measurement used to measure the dependent variable is interval.

e) The research method being used here is experimental.

In the above experiment the researcher wants to see the change in the aggression of the chimp when there is a change in temperature in the zoo.

In this experiment there are two variables that are being used, independent and dependent.The independent variable is the change in temperature as it is regulated by the researcher.The dependent variable is the change in the aggressive nature of the chimps, as the change in nature is directly affected by the change in temperature.   The dependent variable(mood of the chimp) is continuous, as the value cannot be defined separately.Since the data is not discreet but continuous , the scale of measurement used is interval.The research method being used is experimental , because the researcher is controlling the variable temperature to see the effect of the temperature change on the chimps. So the researcher is directly experimenting on the chimps by changing an external factor. So the experiment is not observational.

The 5000 that invested in Fund A returned a 3% profit. The amount that invested in Fund B returned a 10% profit. How much did she invest in Fund B, if both funds together returned a 5% profit?

Answers

The investment in  Fund B is $2000.

To understand the given question we first have to understand the logic of percentage and how it affect the return on Investment.

If an investment fund returns a profit on an investment then the profit is calculated by multiplying the investment with the profit(in decimal form).

For Example: If the investment is A and profit is x % then the profit is calculated by:

Profit =A×([tex]\frac{x}{100}[/tex])

Now in the given problem, let us consider the amount of investment into the Fund B be x.

Profit in Fund B=10%

Profit in Fund A is 3%.

Investment in Fund A=$5000

Total profit from both investments=3% of 5000+10% of x

[tex]=\frac{3}{100}\times 5000 + \frac{10}{100}\times x\\ =150+0.1x[/tex]

Now the total investment=5000+x

The combined profit for both the Investments is 150+0.1x

But the combined profit is 5% for both investments.

profit=[tex]5\% of(5000+x)[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{5}{100}\times (5000+x)\\=0.05\times5000+0.05x\\=250+0.05x[/tex]

Now the profit is same, so if we equate both the expressions of profit we get a linear equation in x.

[tex]\therefore 250+0.05x=150+0.1x\\or,250-150=0.1x-0.05x\\or,100=0.05x\\or,x=2000[/tex]

Thus we can conclude that she invested $2000 in the Fund B.

In 2019, Company A purchased a commercial building with 8 retail units for $4,200,000. In 2021, Company A decided to sell this building for $4,500,000. Interpret the change as a percentage. Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

The change as a percentage is 6.7 %

How to calculate the percentage change ?

The price of the building in the year 2021 is $4,200,00

The price of the building in 2021 is $4,500,000

Therefore the percentage change can be calculated as follows

= 4,500,000 - 4,200,000/4,500,000 × 100

= 300,000/4,500,000 × 100

= 0.066 × 100

= 6.7 %

Hence the percentage change is 6.7%

According to the segment addition postulate, if two points on a line segment, A and C, are given, a third point, B, will only be found on line segment AC if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the conditions of the equation AB + BC = AC.

Keep in mind that a line segment is a portion of a line that has two distinct end points. There are many points between the two end points that make up the object.

The segment addition postulate can be stated more simply by saying that if point B lies on line segment AC, then AB + BC will equal AC.

by the segment addition postulate,

AC + CE = AE so AC = AE - CE

AC = (x+50) - (x+32)

AC = x+50-x-32
