How to solve 4x-c=k solve for x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x = \frac{k + c}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]4x - c = k[/tex]

Solve for:

[tex]x[/tex]

Solution:

(1) Let's move all of components that do not contain [tex]x[/tex] (our target) to the right side (notice the change of sign of [tex]c[/tex] from negative to positive):

[tex]4x = k + c[/tex]

(2) Let's divide both sides of equation by 4:

[tex]\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{k + c}{4}[/tex]

(3) Now, we simplify the left side:

[tex]x = \frac{k + c}{4}[/tex]

This is the solution.

Hope this helps!

b. [tex](x+3)(x+2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A. There are 3 methods (that I know of). The easiest method is the lattice multiplication, while the most commonly used is the FOIL method (First+Outer+Middle+Last)

For F, take the first terms of the 2 and multiply

[tex]4x*2x=8x^{2}[/tex]

For O, take the outer terms and multiply

[tex]4x*-5=-20x[/tex]

For I, take the inner terms and multiply

[tex]3*2x=6x[/tex]

For L, take the last terms and multiply

[tex]3*-5=-15[/tex]

After that, add all of them up

[tex]8x^{2} +(-20x)+6x+(-15)=8x^{2}-14x-15[/tex]

Indicate the equation of the line, in standard form, that passes through (2, -4) and has a slope of 3/5.

Enter your answer into the blank equation box.

Answers

Answer:

equation in standard form is  -3x + 5y = -26

Step-by-step explanation:

standard form of equation of line is

Ax + By = C

where A,B and C are integers.

such line has slope -A/B

Another form of line equation is slope intercept form, which can be written as

y = mx+ c

since in problem m = 3/5

thus, equation is

y = 3/5 x + c

Given that (2,-4) passes through this line, this point will satisfy the above equation

-4 = 3/5 *2 + c

=> - 4 = 6/5 + c

=> c = -4 -6/5 = (-4*5 - 6)/5

=> c = (-20 - 6)/5 = -26/5

Thus, equation in slope intercept form is

y = 3/5 x -26/5

lets rewrite this equation in  Ax + By = C

Multiplying LHS and RHS by 5 we have

5y =( 3/5 x)* 5 - (26/5 * 5)

=> 5y = 3x - 26

we have to bring 3x on LHS for that

we subtract 3x from both side

5y  -3x = 3x - 26 -3x

=> 5y  -3x =  - 26

rearranging the equation

-3x + 5y = -26

Thus, equation in standard form is  -3x + 5y = -26

Which quadratic equation is equivalent to (x + 2)^2 + 5(x + 2) – 6 = 0? A. (u + 2)^2 + 5(u + 2) – 6 = 0 where u = (x – 2) B. u^2 + 4 + 5u – 6 = 0 where u = (x – 2) C. u^2 + 5u – 6 = 0 where u = (x + 2) D. u^2 + u – 6 = 0 where u = (x + 2) (This is a question from Edg by the way)

Answers

Answer:

C. u^2 + 5u – 6 = 0 where u = (x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 2)^2 + 5(x + 2) – 6 = 0

Let u = x+2

(u)^2 + 5(u) – 6 = 0

Answer:

C.u^2+5u-6=0

Step-by-step explanation:

By comparing (x+2)^2+5(x+2)-6=0 to answer C,that is u^2+5u-6=0,u=(x+2).

By sustituting (x+2)into answer C,we get;

(x+2)^2+5(x+2)-6=0 which is the same as the quadriatic equation given in the question.

What is the slope of a straight line?

Slope tells how vertical a line is.

The more the slope is, the more the line is vertical. When slope is zero, the line is horizontal.

To find the slope, we take the ratio of how much the line's height increases as we go forward or backward on the horizontal axis.

This is because the more the height of the line to thee amount we walk or run on the horizontal axis, the more the slope is. That is why we took difference of horizontal axis in denominator and difference of vertical axis on numerator.

Formula for slope, thus, is;

Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Parameters;

J(-4, -5) and K(-6, 3)

= (3 - (-5)) / (-6 - (-4))

= (3 + 5) / (-6 + 4)

= 8 / -2

= -4

Substitute one of the coordinates into the formula to solve for b

y = mx + b

y = -4x + b

3 = -4(-6) + b

3 = 24 + b

3 - 24 = b

b = - 21

A restaurant used 231 eggs last week. Of these, 46 were brown in color. The remaining eggs were white in color. Which equation can be used to solve for w, the number of white eggs used last week?

Answers

46+w=231

w=185

# brown eggs (46) + # white eggs (w) = total # of eggs (231)

Answer:

231 - 46 = 185

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the restaurant used 231 eggs last week. (That's a lot!)

That is out starting point. It doesn't change.

Then, it says 46 are brown eggs.

To find the number of white eggs, we know it must equal to 231 when added to the 46 brown eggs. Or, 46 + ? = 231.

So, we do the opposite operation of addition; subtraction.

Like this:

231 eggs - 46 brown = ? white eggs.

That equals 185 white eggs.

There are three types of tickets to enter the amusement park of a particular city. The normal ticket costs R $ 52.00, the child ticket costs R $ 20.00 and the elderly ticket costs R $ 28.00. A group of friends went to the park and paid in total R $ 480.00. In this group, each adult (normal or senior) took two children. How many normal tickets purchased?

Answers

Answer:

3 normal tickets were sold, 3 tickets were sold for the elderly, and 12 tickets were sold for children

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = normal ticket number

Let y = child ticket number

Let z = elderly ticket number

The total amount spent is 480, so we can create this equation:

52 * x + 20 * y + 28 * z = 480

They also tell us that each adult took two children, so:

y = 2 * (x + z)

We have two equations and three unknowns, therefore we must simplify and do trial and error. First, let's substitute "y" in terms of "x" and "z" in the first equation, then simplify:

52 * x + 20 * y + 28 * z = 480

52 * x + 20 * 2 * (x + z) + 28 * z = 480

52 * x + 40 * (x + z) + 28 * z = 480

52 * x + 40 * x + 40 * z + 28 * z = 480

92 * x + 68 * z = 480

23 * x + 17 * z = 120

Let's solve for x in terms of e:

23 * x = 120-17 * z

x = (120-17 * z) / 23

We know that (120 - 17 * z) has to be a multiple of 23 for "x" to be an integer. So let's look at testing some values ​​of "z" to make valid values ​​for "x":

120-17 (0) = 120 (not multiple of 23)

120-17 (1) = 103 (not multiple of 23)

120-17 (2) = 86 (not multiple of 23)

120-17 (3) = 69 (multiple of 23)

120-17 (4) = 52 (not multiple of 23)

120-17 (5) = 35 (not multiple of 23)

120-17 (6) = 18 (not multiple of 23)

120-17 (7) = 1 (not multiple of 23)

After that, we get negative values ​​for "x", so here there is only one possible value for "x", so we know that z = 3:

Now we can solve for "x" and "y":

x = (120-17 * 3) / 23

x = (120-51) / 23

x = 69/23

x = 3

Now for and:

y = 2 * (x + y)

y = 2 (3 + 3)

y = 12

Therefore, 3 normal tickets were sold, 3 tickets were sold for the elderly, and 12 tickets were sold for children.

<=> [tex]\frac{5}{5} x = \frac{30}{5}[/tex]

Simplifying to work out [tex]x[/tex]:

<=>[tex]x = 6[/tex]

Hope this helps!

:)

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 3= 27 - 2x

First we put all the x terms to on side, making it 3x + 2x - 3= 27.

Remeber that when we move a term to the other side of the equals sign (=), we change its sign to be the opposite of what it currently is.

Then, we move all the numberics to the other side, so we derieve 3x + 2x = 27 +3. Again, the sign changes when we move it across.

What is left to do is add up the quantities. So 3x + 2x = 5x and 27 +3 = 30.

We are left with 5x = 30. If 5 x's is 30, how much is one? Sinply divide it to get the answer of 30 / 5 which is six!

To make sure the answer is correct substituite 6 in the equation as x and see if its accurate: 3(6) -3 = 7 - 2 (6). And it is!

So x is equal to six.

I need help finding the surface area, can someone help

Answers

Answer:

1). Surface area of the prism = 112 cm²

2). Area of the sphere = 615.8 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

1). Surface area of the triangular prism = Area of the triangular bases + Area of three lateral (rectangular) sides

Area of a triangular base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})[/tex]

                                          = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(3)(7)[/tex]

                                          = 10.5 cm²

Area of a rectangle = Length × width

Area of the rectangular lateral sides = (3 × 5) + (8 × 5) + (7 × 5)

                                                            = 15 + 40 + 35

                                                            = 90 cm²

Surface area of the prism = (2 × 10.5) + 90

                                           = 21 + 90

                                           = 112 cm²

2). Surface area of the sphere = 4πr²

                                                  = 4π(7)²

                                                  = 615.75

                                                  ≈ 615.8 cm²
