Are the equations 3x = -9 and 4x = -12 equivalent? Explain

Mathematics

3 0

4(3x) = 4( - 9) \\ 12x =  - 36
3(4x) = 3( - 12) \\ 12x =  - 36
So the equations are equal

So it's actually 0.36363636... with the 36 repeating, right? 

<span>Here's a technique for converting repeating decimals to fractions: </span>

<span>N = 0.3636363636... </span>
<span>100N = 36.36363636... </span>

<span>This means 100N - N = (36.363636...) - (0.36363636...). This simplifies to 99N = 36, because the "0.36363636..." parts of both numbers on the right cancel each other out. </span>

<span>Solving this for N gives </span>
<span>N = 36/99, or 4/11 </span>

<span>If you take a calculator (or use long division) and divide 4 by 11, you'll see that it's 0.36363636...</span>

5-2(4a+1)+3a=13 <br><br> A= 2/3<br> A= -2<br> A= -6/5<br> A=2
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

                   a = -2

Simplifying 5 + -2(4a + 1) + 3a = 13 Reorder the terms: 5 + -2(1 + 4a) + 3a = 13 5 + (1 * -2 + 4a * -2) + 3a = 13 5 + (-2 + -8a) + 3a = 13 Combine like terms: 5 + -2 = 3 3 + -8a + 3a = 13 Combine like terms: -8a + 3a = -5a 3 + -5a = 13 Solving 3 + -5a = 13 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -3 + -5a = 13 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + -5a = 13 + -3 -5a = 13 + -3 Combine like terms: 13 + -3 = 10 -5a = 10 Divide each side by '-5'. a = -2

Using the slope concept, it is found that the angle between the ladder and the floor will be of 33.69º.

<h3>What is a slope?</h3>

The slope is given by the <u>vertical change divided by the horizontal change</u>, and it's also the tangent of the angle of depression.

In this problem, we have that:

  • The angle is of 45º.
  • The vertical distance is the height of h.
  • The horizontal distance is of 3m.

Hence:

tan(45º) = h/3.

1 = h/3.

h = 3 m.

If the ladder slides 1 m down, the height will be of 2m, hence the angle will be given as follows:

\tan{\theta} = \frac{2}{3}

\theta = \arctan{\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)}

\theta = 33.69^\circ

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Let v = ml of 100% vinegar

Then 150-v = ml of dressing

v  + .05(150-v) = .24(150)

v + 7.5 - .05v = 36

.95v = 28.5

v = 28.5/.95

v = 30 ml of vinegar

dressing = 150-30 = 120 ml
