The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:
x: the total mass of the chemical in the container
y: a sample of a chemical from a container
We have the following equation:
y = (3/10) x - 5 3/4
Then, for y = 39.1 we have:
39.1 = (3/10) x - 5 3/4
Clearing x:
(3/10) x = 39.1 + 5 3/4
(3/10) x = 44.85
x = (10/3) * (44.85)
x = 149.5 grams
Answer:
the total mass in grams of the chemical in the container before the scientist removed the sample of 39.1 grams was:
x = 149.5 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x+4) = 12
or, 2x + 8 = 12
or, 2x = 12-8
or, 2x = 4
or, x = 4÷2
hence, x = 2
2.33 is the aprox number we start off with. if we got to find the original, we divide 560 by (7/3).
after we estimate the divisior we get 240. 560 - 240 gives us 320.
the answer could be 320.
Answer:
-99
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
parallel line: -(7/8)
perpendicular line: (8/7)
7x + 8y = 6: y = (3/4) - (7x/8)
