The algebraic equation to represent the given situation is as follows,

y = 4 + 2x

What is an algebraic equation?

The term "algebraic equation" refers to a formulation of the equality of two expressions using the algebraic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, raising to a power, and extraction of a root on a set of variables.

An expression that includes variables, constants, and algebraic operations is known as an algebraic expression in mathematics (addition, subtraction, etc.).

Forming the Algebraic Equation

Number of book present on the shelf initially = 4

It is given that 2 books are added per minute to the shelf.

If x is the number of minutes, then the books added will be 2x.

If y is the total number of books present on the shelf, then the algebraic equation is given as,

y = Number of books initially present on the shelf  + 2x

⇒ y = 4 + 2x

Thus, y = 4 + 2x is the required algebraic equation.

Steven wants to increase the number of books he reads per year. He currently reads 2 books a year. He wants to triple the number
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

B=2\times 3^n

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Exponential Growing </u>

Steven currently reads 2 books a year. He wants to triple the number of books read per year. The first year he should read

2*3 = 6\ books

By the second year, he should read

2*3^2 = 18\ books

By the third year, he should read

2*3^3 = 54\ books

We can clearly see there is a geometric progression of the number of books he should read for the year n. The general formula is, being B the number of books read at the year n

\boxed{B=2\times 3^n}

1/2 + 5/3 - 1<br>------------------<br> 3/4
Sav [38]
Hey there :)

\frac{ \frac{1}{2}+ \frac{5}{3} -1 }{ \frac{3}{4} }
      ↓ Is the same as
\frac{1}{2} + \frac{5}{3} -1 ÷ \frac{3}{4}

Since it is a division by fraction, we can multiply by what is called the reciprocal
( The attached picture might help you )
( \frac{1}{2} + \frac{5}{3} - 1 ) × \frac{4}{3} 
     ↓ For this part, we need the common denominator, which is 6
\frac{1(3)}{2(3)}+ \frac{5(2)}{32)}  \frac{1(6)}{1(6)} × \frac{4}{3}

\frac{3}{6}+ \frac{10}{6}  - \frac{6}{6} × \frac{4}{3}
\frac{7}{6} × \frac{4}{3}
\frac{14}{9} =  1\frac{5}{9}
  ↑

3<br> Solve for x.<br> 9(x + 1) = 25 + x<br> Ο x=2<br> x=3<br> 0 x=4<br> 0 0 0 0<br> Ο<br> 0 x=5
muminat

Answer:

x= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

so expand the left side of the equation

9x+9= 25+x

and then group like terms( subtract 9 from both sides and also do same with x.

9x-x= 25-9

8x= 16

divide by 8 on both sides.

x=2
