Solve for x: 4x – 7 = 8x + 33

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lera25 [3.4K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

To solve this question we will use PEMDAS (order of operations)

4x−7=8x+33

Subtract 8x from both sides.

4x−7−8x=33

Combine 4x and −8x to get −4x.

−4x−7=33

Add 7 to both sides.

−4x=33+7

Add 33 and 7 to get 40.

−4x=40

Divide both sides by −4.

x= 40/-4

Divide 40 by −4 to get −10.

x=−10

The combined age of three relatives is 120 years. James is three times the age of Dan, and Paul is two time the sum of the ages
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Dan's age

3x be James'age

Paul 2(3x+x)=6x+2x

Suming all ages

x+3x+6x+2x=120

Solving for x

12x=120

x=10 (Dan's age)

3×=30 (James'age)

6×+2×=80(Paul's age)

In the model below what is x and how do I solve it​
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:so that’s a interior triangle so the mean your 2 points in the inside and the equation on the outside.

X=6

Step-by-step explanation:

(8x-4)+(3x+17)=(17x-23)

Combined our alike terms on the left side of the equation. So 8x+3x and -4+17.

11x+13=17x-23

Now this is what the equation should look like after combining ur alike terms.

11x+13=17x-23

-11x. -11x.

now u take the lowest x which is 11x and mince that from 17x but u only mince if it’s a positive but is it’s a negative u add it.

13=6x-23 so if u moved the x on the right side u move non variable number to the left but if u moved the x to the left u move the non variable number to the right so in this case the non variable number would be -23 so now u add 23 on both sides.

36=6x and now u just divide the 36 by 6 and remember to always divide by the x

Now the answer is x=6

78/25 as a terminating decimal
Kazeer [188]
To write \frac{78}{25} as a terminating decimal we will turn this fraction to a decimal. To do this we will divide the numerator by the deliminator and the result will be the decimal.Then we will check if it is a terminating decimal or repeating decimal. Lets do it:-

\frac{78}{25}
78 ÷ 25 = 3.12

3.12 is a terminating decimal. 

So, \frac{78}{25} as a terminating decimal is 3.12.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

  2. 10

  3. D.  1 for all n

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  a^b = 1/a^-b

__

  \dfrac{4^8}{(4^2)^{-3}}\div 4^4=\dfrac{4^8}{4^{-6}\cdot4^4}=\dfrac{4^8}{4^{-2}}\\\\=4^8\cdot4^2=4^{10}

The value of n is 10.

__

3. Using the above rules of exponents, the expression simplifies to ...

  6^(-n+n) = 6^0 = 1

The value is 1 for any n.
