The quotient of triple a number less four and five equals two. What is the number?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of triple a number less four and five equals two. What is the number?

"triple a number" means 3x, if we say x is the "number"

"triple a number less four" means (3x-4)

"quotient of [triple a number less four] and five equals two." means

(3x-4)/5 = 2

3x-4 = 10

3x = 14

x = 14/3

===

Does ((14/3)3 - 4)/5 = 2 ???

(14 - 4)/5

10/5 = 2                         YES

What is the number?

Bethany is working her way through school. She works two part-time jobs for a total of 23 hours a week. Job A pays $5.70 per hour, and Job B pays $7.10 per hour. How many hours did she work at each job the week that she made $143.70.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of hours A

y = number of hours B

x + y = 23

5.7x + 7.1y = 143.7

from the first equation we get

x = 23 - y

and that we use in the second equation

5.7×(23 - y) + 7.1y = 143.7

131.1 - 5.7y + 7.1y = 143.7

1.4y = 12.6

y = 12.6/1.4 = 9

x = 23 - y = 23 - 9 = 14

Which of the following sets shows all the numbers from the set {3, 4, 5, 6} that are part of the solution to the equation 5x + 4 < 29? (4 points)

{4, 5, 6}
{3, 4, 5}
{3, 4}
{3}

Answers

Answer:  C)   {3, 4}

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

Explanation:

Solve the inequality for x.

5x + 4 < 29

5x < 29-4

5x < 25

x < 25/5

x < 5

I subtracted 4 from both sides (step 2). Then I divided both sides by 5 to fully isolate x (step 4). The inequality sign stays the same the entire time.

Since x < 5, this means the original set {3,4,5,6} becomes {3,4} since these values make x < 5 a true statement. In other words, we erase 5 and 6 because something like 6 < 5 is false.

That's why {3, 4} is the final answer.

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

An alternative method is to go through the set {3,4,5,6} and plug those items one by one into the original inequality. If you get a true result, then it's part of the answer.

Let's try x = 3

5x + 4 < 29

5(3) + 4 < 29

15+4 < 29

19 < 29

We get a true statement at the end, so x = 3 is part of the solution set. A similar story happens for x = 4 as well.

If we tried x = 5, then,

5x + 4 < 29

5(5) + 4 < 29

25 + 4 < 29

29 < 29

which is false. No number is bigger than itself (or smaller than itself). Therefore, x = 5 is crossed out of the original set. You should get a false statement for x = 6, which means we'll kick this value out as well.
