Answer:
a. 10
b. -4
Step-by-step explanation:
For these problems, since we are given the x, we plug it into the expression and solve.
a.
3(4)-2 [multiply]
12-2 [subtract]
10
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b.
5(-2)+6 [multiply]
-10+6 [subtract]
-4
Answer:
48 sides
Step-by-step explanation:
A nonagon has 9 sides
A decagon has 10 sides
10 + 10 + 10 = 30
9+9 = 18
30 + 18 = 48
48 sides in total

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a differential equation problem most easily solved with an exponential decay equation of the form
. We know that the initial amount of salt in the tank is 28 pounds, so
C = 28. Now we just need to find k.
The concentration of salt changes as the pure water flows in and the salt water flows out. So the change in concentration, where y is the concentration of salt in the tank, is
. Thus, the change in the concentration of salt is found in
inflow of salt - outflow of salt
Pure water, what is flowing into the tank, has no salt in it at all; and since we don't know how much salt is leaving (our unknown, basically), the outflow at 3 gal/min is 3 times the amount of salt leaving out of the 400 gallons of salt water at time t:

Therefore,
or just
and in terms of time,

Thus, our equation is
and filling in 16 for the number of minutes in t:
y = 24.834 pounds of salt
