Ok, you have your equation 15=x/6-1.
First, add 1 to both sides, get 16=x/6.
Then, multiply both sides by 6.
Get your answer of x=96
Hope this helps

What is the factorization of 729^15+1000?

igomit [66]

Answer:

The factorization of $729x^{15} +1000$ is $(9x^{5} +10)(81x^{10} -90x^{5} +100)$

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of factorization by sum and difference of cubes, this type of factorization applies only in binomials of the form $(a^{3} +b^{3} )$ or $(a^{3} -b^{3})$ . It is easy to recognize because the coefficients of the terms are perfect cube numbers (which means numbers that have exact cubic root, such as 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, 343, 512, 729, 1000, etc.) and the exponents of the letters a and b are multiples of three (such as 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, etc.).

Let's solve the factorization of $729x^{15} +1000$ by using the sum and difference of cubes factorization.

1.) We calculate the cubic root of each term in the equation $729x^{15} +1000$ , and the exponent of the letter x is divided by 3.

$\sqrt[3]{729x^{15}} =9x^{5}$

$1000=10^{3}$ then $\sqrt[3]{10^{3}} =10$

So, we got that

$729x^{15} +1000=(9x^{5})^{3} + (10)^{3}$ which has the form of $(a^{3} +b^{3} )$ which means is a sum of cubes.

Sum of cubes

$(a^{3} +b^{3} )=(a+b)(a^{2} -ab+b^{2})$

with $a= 9x^{5}$ y $b=10$

2.) Solving the sum of cubes.

$(9x^{5})^{3} + (10)^{3}=(9x^{5} +10)((9x^{5})^{2}-(9x^{5})(10)+10^{2} )$

$(9x^{5})^{3} + (10)^{3}=(9x^{5} +10)(81x^{10}-90x^{5}+100)$

erik drove 439.92 miles on 15.6 gallons of gas. To the nearest hundredth, how many miles could he drive on 39.7 gallons of gas?

Thepotemich [5.8K]

In the question it is already given that Eric drove for 439.92 miles on 15.6 gallons. It is required to find the distance traveled on 39.7 gallons of gas. Also we have to find the answer to the nearest hundredth.
Then,
In 15.6 gallons Eric can drive for a distance = 439.92 miles
In 39.7 gallons Eric can drive for a distance = [(439.92/15.6) * 39.7] miles
= 1119.54 miles
So the total distance traveled by Eric is 1120 miles with 39.7 gallons of gas. The answer has been calculated to the nearest hundredth.

What is the population standard deviation of this data set?*

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

C) 2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1: Find mean of data set

2+4+4+5+7+8 = 30

30/6 = 5

Mean = 5

step 2: subtract each data value from the mean and square it

5-2 = 3; 3² = 9

5-4 = 1; 1² = 1

5-5 = 0; 0² = 0

5-7 = -2; (-2²) = 4

5-8 = -3; (-3²) = 9

Add the squared results:

9+1+1+0+4+9 = 24

Divide 24 by 6 to get the Variance of 4

Take the square root of the Variance to get the Standard Deviation

$\sqrt{4}$ = 2

Here are three stories:

aev [14]

Answer:

a) 6x+3 = 27

b) x=4

c) We know that x is price of each ticket, so The price of each ticket is $4. They bought 6 tickets, so total cost of ticket = 24 and $3 for parking so, total money spent = $27.

a) 3x + 6 = 27

b) x= 7

c) We know that x is amount of juice poured, so 3 friends of Diego will get 7 ounces of Juice, while Diego will get 6 ounces of juice.

a) 27x + 3 = 6

b) x= 1/9

c) We know that x is time spend on each picture, so Jada spend 1/9 hour on each picture

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A family buys 6 tickets to a show. They also pay a $3 parking fee. They spend $27 to see the show.

a) Decide which equation represents each story. What does x represent in each equation?

Let x be price of one ticket.

The equation will be: 6x+3 = 27

b. Find the solution to each equation. Explain or show your reasoning,

Now solving the equation:

6x+3=27

6x=27-3

6x=24

x=24/6

x=4

So, we get x = 4

c. What does each solution tell you about its situation?

We know that x is price of each ticket, so The price of each ticket is $4. They bought 6 tickets, so total cost of ticket = 24 and $3 for parking so, total money spent = $27.

2. Diego has 27 ounces of juice. He pours equal amounts for each of his 3 friends and has 6 ounces left for himself.

a) Decide which equation represents each story. What does x represent in each equation?

Let x be amount of juice poured.

The equation will be: 3x+6 = 27

b. Find the solution to each equation. Explain or show your reasoning,

Now solving the equation:

3x+6=27

3x=27-6

3x=21

x=21/3

x=7

So, we get x = 7

c. What does each solution tell you about its situation?

We know that x is amount of juice poured, so 3 friends of Diego will get 7 ounces of Juice, while Diego will get 6 ounces of juice.

3. Diego has 27 ounces of juice. He pours equal amounts for each of his 3 friends and has 6 ounces left for himself.

a) Jada works for 6 hours preparing for the art fair. She spends 3 hours on a sculpture and then paints 27 picture frames.

Let x be time spend on each picture frame.

The equation will be: 27x+3=6

b. Find the solution to each equation. Explain or show your reasoning,

Now solving the equation:

27x+3=6

27x=6-3

27x=3

x=3/27

x=1/9

So, we get x = 1/9

c. What does each solution tell you about its situation?

We know that x is time spend on each picture, so Jada spend 1/9 hour on each picture

Law of cosines: a2 = b2 + c2 – 2bccos(A) What is the value of n to the nearest whole number? 18 22 29 41

nalin [4]

We know that
applying the law of cosines
a² = b²+ c² – 2*b*c*cos(A)

in this problem
a=?
b=20
c=9
A=90°
so
a² = b²+ c² – 2*b*c*cos(A)
but
cos (A)=0
a² = b²+ c²-----> 20²+9²----> a²=400+81----> a²=481-----> a=√481
a=21.93-----> a=22

the answer is
22
