Answer is a= 51/7 or 7 2/7

Step by step

-2/3 (a + 3) = 5/3a - 19

Distribute to resolve parentheses

-2/3a -2 = 5/3a - 19

Now to move variables to one side
Add 2/3a to both sides

-2/3a + 2/3a -2 = 5/3a + 2/3a -19

Combine like terms

-2 = 7/3a -19

Add 19 to both sides to isolate variable

-2 +19 = 7/3a -19 + 19

17 = 7/3a

Divide both sides by 7/3 to solve for a
(Remember when you divide a fraction, flip it and multiply.)

17 * 3/7 = a

51/7 = a

Picture attached shows steps in order, I think that is what you also needed?

At 2pm two military convoys leave Eagle River Wisconsin one headed North and 1 headed South the convoy headed North averages 50

Answer:

The answer to the question is

1.5 hours that is;

When the distance between them is more then 135 miles is after 1.5 hours and they will lose radio contact at 3:30 p.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that

The speed of the military convoy headed north =50 mph

The speed of the convoy headed south = 40 mph

Let t be the time taken for the two convoys to be 135 miles apart

The time taken for the two convoys to be 135 miles apart is given by

50×t miles+ 40×t miles= 135 miles

That is 90×t miles = 135 miles

t = 135/90 = 1.5 hrs

Heather works part time at a movie theater where she earns $7.00

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

d. 1 grid equals 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

When plotting research data, X-axis(or horizontal axis) usually used for independent variable and Y-axis is used for the dependent variable. In this case, Heather wants to know how much earning on different numbers of hours. The dependent variable is the earning and the independent variable is the hours, so you put hours on the horizontal axis.

You want to make a 10x10 grid of data and the hours ranged between 1-10. If you plot them equally, approximate scale will be: (10h-1h)/(10)= 0.9h/grid

The closest option is 1 hour per grid. It will provide the best visualization since it won't stretch or minimize the data too much.

Consider a circle whose equation is x2 + y2 – 2x – 8 = 0. Which statements are true? Select three options. The radius of the cir

FromTheMoon [43]

The statements which are correct about the equation of circle $x^{2} +y^{2}-2x-8=0$ are 1) The radius of the circle is 3 units,2) The center of the circle lies on the x axis,5) The radius of this circle is the same the radius of the circle whose equation is $x^{2} +y^{2} =9$ .

Given the equation of circle be $x^{2} +y^{2}-2x-8=0$ .

We are required to find the appropriate statements related to the equation $x^{2} +y^{2}-2x-8=0$ .

$x^{2} +y^{2}-2x-8=0$ can be written as under:

$x^{2} +y^{2} -2x+1-9=0$

$x^{2} +1^{2}-2x+y^{2} -9=0$

$(x-1)^{2}+y^{2}$ -9=0

$(x-1)^{2} +y^{2} =9$

$(x-1)^{2}+y^{2} =3^{2}$

Equation of a circle usually in the form $x^{2} +y^{2} =a^{2}$ in which a is radius.

From the comparison of both the equations we get that radius is 3 units.

From the equation point will be (1,0). It is on the x axis.

Hence the statements which are correct about the equation of circle $x^{2} +y^{2}-2x-8=0$ are 1) The radius of the circle is 3 units,2) The center of the circle lies on the x axis,5) The radius of this circle is the same the radius of the circle whose equation is $x^{2} +y^{2} =9$ .

Figure this out please Asap.

If the polygons are similar then the sides are in proportion.

$\dfrac{32}{24}=\dfrac{32:8}{24:8}=\dfrac{4}{3}$

Therefore we have the equations:

$\dfrac{x-1}{6}=\dfrac{4}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\3(x-1)=(4)(6)\\\\3x-3=24\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\3x=27\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\\boxed{x=9}$

$\dfrac{y+1}{21}=\dfrac{4}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\3(y+1)=(21)(4)\\\\3y+3=84\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\3y=81\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\\boxed{y=27}$

Adrián compró una bicicleta cuyo precio original es de 400.00 pesos pero al pagar en la caja le hicieron 20% de descuento cuánto

Georgia [21]

Answer:

320 pesos

Step-by-step explanation:

Un 20% de descuento en formato decimal es 0.20. La totalidad de la bicicleta es representada como 100% o 1 y nosotros queremos saber el precio despues del descuento que seria

100% - 20% = 80% o 0.80

Ahora simplemente multiplicamos este decimal por el valor original de la bicicleta para saber el precio descontado...

400 * 0.80 = 320 pesos
