well, you already know an absolute value expression has a ± siblings, so let's proceed without much fuss.


\bf |2x-5|=4\implies  \begin{cases} +(2x-5)=4\implies 2x=9\implies x=\cfrac{9}{2}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ -(2x-5)=4\implies 2x-5=-4\\[1em] 2x=1\implies x=\cfrac{1}{2} \end{cases}

if she question 1 spend $25 out of the $150, then you would do 150 sub 25 to get 125

Kevin has 10 signs. he's adding 5 signs, so divide 10 to 5 to get 2

Harvey has 5 in 1 minute, i would say in 2 minutes he'll have 10

Fran adds $25 to her $150 then she'll get $175.

Step-by-step explanation:

P= Parentheses  

E= Exponent      

M= Multiplication

D= Division

A= Addition

S= Subtraction

If this doesn't help then sorry , hope this helps.

Morgan works at a store that sells clothing accessories. The supply function
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The number of supply of base balls is 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P = Q - 4

Price = $18

Required

Number of supply

The relationship between price and quantity is given to be P = Q - 4 where price is represented by P and Q represents the quantity.

To get the quantity supply when price is $18, all you need to do is to substitute 18 for P in the above equation;

Thus, giving:

18 = Q - 4

Make Q the subject of formula

Q = 18 + 4

Q = 22 quantities

Hence,  the number of supply of base balls is 22

2. The ratio of radii of two cylinders is 1:2 and heights are in the ratio 2:3. Find the ratio of their volumes.
Savatey [412]

Answer: \frac{1}{6} or 1:6

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder can be found with the following formula:

V=\pi r^2h

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height of the cylinder.

In this case, let be:

- V_1 the volume of one of this cylinders and V_2 the volume of the other one.

- r_1 the radius of the first one and r_2 the radius of the other cylinder.

- h_1 the height of one of them and h_2 the height of the other cylinder.

Then:

V_1=\pi r_1^2h_1\\\\V_2=\pi r_2^2h_2

Therefore, you know this:

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{\pi r_1^2h_1}{\pi r_2^2h_2}

Simplifying, you get:

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{ r_1^2h_1}{ r_2^2h_2}

Now, knowing the ratios given in the exercise, you can substitute them into the equation:

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{1^2*2}{ 2^2*3}

Evaluating, you get:

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{2}{ 4*3}\\\\\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{2}{12}\\\\\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{1}{6}
