Solve the equation 6=2 (x+8) -5×

Mama L [17]3 years ago

We have to isolate x. We can achieve that using inverse operations.

6 = 2(x + 8) - 5x
Simplify.
6 = 2x + 16 - 5x
Combine like terms.
6 = -3x + 16
Subtract 16 from both sides.
-10 = -3x
Divide both sides by -3.
3 1/3 = x

x is equivalent to 10/3, 3.33 repeating, or 3 1/3.

There are some caps in a box. 1/6 of them are red, 1/3 are blue, and 3/7 of the remainder are green. If there are 27 green caps,
3241004551 [841]
\frac{1}{6}x+\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{3}{7}(x-(\frac{1}{6}x+\frac{1}{3}x))=x\\\frac{3}{7}(x-(\frac{1}{6}x+\frac{1}{3}x))=27\\\frac{3}{7}(x-(\frac{1}{2}x))=27\\\frac{3}{7}(\frac{1}{2}x)=27\\x=126

126 caps

Can someone help me with this question?????????
pishuonlain [190]
Area of the circle can be calculated using the following rule:
area = pi*(radius)^2

For the first circle:
We are given that:
area = 1040.9 square units ....> I

For the second circle:
We are given that:
radius = 27 units
Therefore:
area = pi * (27)^2 = 2290.221044 square units ....> II

For the third circle:
We are given that:
circumference = 87.92 units
Therefore:
circumference = 2*pi*radius = 87.92
radius = 13.99 units
area = pi*(13.99)^2 = 615.12799 square units ...> III

For the fourth circle:
We are given that:
diameter = 19 units
Therefore:
radius = 19/2 = 9.5 units
area = pi*(9.5)^2 = 283.528 square units ....> IV

Based on the above, the order according to increasing area would be:
IV , III , I , II

hope this helps :)
