Solve for x 2x - 1 - 1 = x - 3 - ( -5 + x )

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nana76 [90]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2x−1−1=x−3−(−5+x)

2x−1−1=x−3+−1(−5+x)(Distribute the Negative Sign)

2x−1−1=x+−3+(−1)(−5)+−1x

2x−1−1=x+−3+5+−x

2x+−1+−1=x+−3+5+−x

(2x)+(−1+−1)=(x+−x)+(−3+5)(Combine Like Terms)

2x+−2=2

2x−2=2

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

2x−2+2=2+2

2x=4

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

4

2

x=2

Suppose that news spreads through a city of fixed size of 700000 people at a time rate proportional to the number of people who
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

y'(t) = k(700,000-y(t))  k>0 is the constant of proportionality

y(0) =0

Step-by-step explanation:

(a.) Formulate a differential equation and initial condition for y(t) = the number of people who have heard the news t days after it has happened.

If we suppose that news spreads through a city of fixed size of 700,000 people at a time rate proportional to the number of people who have not heard the news that means  

<em>dy/dt = k(700,000-y(t)) </em>where k is some constant of proportionality.

Since no one has heard the news at first, we have

<em>y(0) = 0 (initial condition) </em>

We can then state the initial value problem as

y'(t) = k(700,000-y(t))

y(0) =0

A cylindrical pressure vessel has a height of 9 feet and a diameter of 6 feet. How much gas can the pressure vessel hold when fu
stellarik [79]
Height of the cylindrical pressure vessel = 9 feet
Diameter of the cylindrical pressure vessel = 6 feet
Then
Radius of the cylindrical pressure vessel = (6/2) feet
                                                                   = 3 feet
Then
Volume of the cylindrical pressure vessel = <span>π<span>r^2</span></span><span>h</span>
                                                                   = 3.14 * (3)^2 * 9 cubic feet
                                                                   = 3.14 * 9 * 9 cubic feet
                                                                   = 254.34 cubic feet
So the amount of gas that the cylindrical pressure vessel can hold is 254.34 cubic feet. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

Find the measure of angle x in the figure below:
exis [7]
X=51
Add 57 and 61 and subtract from 180 (straight lines and 180 degrees)

That's y which is 62 and add the 67 degrees.

And once again subtract from 180 (degree fed of a triangle) to find x
