This is a literal equation and in this case, we have to ISOLATE (or solve) for p.

So, to isolate p, move 3m to the other side as your first step.

Divide -5 from p and what you do to one side, you do to the other. So also divide -5 from 12-3m.

There's your answer.

3m - 5p = 12

3m(-3m) -5p = (-3m)+ 12
-5p = -3m + 12
(-5)/-5p = (-5)/ (-3m + 12)
p = 3/5m + 12/-5

What is the answer of this problem -7/3(3x-2)=-21 ?

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

= 11/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. COMBINE MULTIPLIED TERMS INTO A SINGLE FRACTION

- 7/3 (3x-2)= -21

-7 (3x-2) = -21

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

2. DISTRIBUTE

-7( 3x- 2) ➗ 3 =-21

3. MULTIPLY ALL TERMS BY THE SAME VALUE TO ELIMINATE FRACTION DENOMINATORS

-21x + 14 ➗ 3 = 3 (-21)

4. CANCEL MULTIPLIED TERMS THAT ARE IN THE DENOMINATOR

3 ( -21x + 14) ➗ 3 (-21)

5. MULIPLY THE NUMBERS

-21x + 14 = 3(-21)

6. SUBTRACT 14 FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE EQUATION

-21x + 14 = -63

7. SIMPLIFY

-21x = - 77

8. DIVIDE BOTH SIDES OF THE EQUATION BY THE SAME TERM

-21x/-21 = -77/-21

9. SIMPLIFY

x = 11/3

The volume of ice-cream in the cone is half the volume of the cone. The cone has a 3 cm radius and

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

h = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The volume of ice-cream in the cone is half the volume of the cone.

Volume of cone is given by :

$V_c=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

r is radius of cone, r = 3 cm

h is height of cone, h = 6 cm

So,

$V_c=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi (3)^2\times 6\\\\V_c=18\pi\ cm^3$

Let $V_i$ is the volume of icecream in the cone. So,

$V_i=\dfrac{18\pi}{2}=9\pi\ cm^3$

Let H be the depth of the icecream.

Two triangles formed by the cone and the icecream will be similiar. SO,

$\dfrac{H}{6}=\dfrac{r}{3}\\\\r=\dfrac{H}{2}$

So, volume of icecream in the cone is :

$V_c=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi (\dfrac{h}{2})^2(\dfrac{h}{3})\\\\9\pi=\dfrac{h^3}{12}\pi\\\\h^3=108\\\\h=4.76\ cm$

h = 5 cm

So, the depth of the ice-cream is 5 cm.
