Seven times the difference of some number and 1 amounts to the quotient of 168 and 12

Mathematics
1 answer:
rjkz [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

7 (x - 1) = 14

gives:   x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

According to Given conditions:

  • Difference of some number and 1 = x - 1
  • Seven times the difference of some number and 1 = 7 (x - 1)
  • Quotient of 168 and 12 = 168/12 = 14

According to given scenario:

7 (x - 1) = 14

Dividing both sides by 7

(x - 1) =2

Adding 1 on both sides:

x -1 +1 = 2 + 1

x = 3

I hope it will help you!

a contractor is building a new subdivision on the outside of a city. he has started work on the first street and is planning for
monitta

The equation of the location of the second street in standard form is

x + y = -6

Equation of the line:

The equation of the line represents the algebraic form of representing the set of points, which together form a line in a coordinate system.

The equation of the line can be formed with the help of the slope of the line and a point on the line.

The general form of the equation of a line with a slope m and passing through the point (x₁,y₁) is given as:

y = mx + b.

Where

m represents the slope of the line.

Given,

Point = ( -5 , -1)

Here we need to find the equation of the location.

For that, first we have to find the slope of the line,

Having two points in the format (x,y), the slope is given by the change in y divided by the change in x.

The equation of the street is parallel to the equation of the line in the graph, thus they have the same slope.

So, in street 1 the equation is

=> y =-x +1

And street 2 the equation is  

=> y =-x +b,  

solve for b by plugging in (-5,-1)

=> -1 =-(-5) +b

=> b= -1-5 = -6

=> b = -6

Now apply the value of b on the equation,

Then

=> y = -x -6

=> y + x = -6

So, the equation of the location is x + y = -6.

Geometry problem in the picture: Find the measure of the angle to the nearest degree
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

? Is 41 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

SOH CAH TOA

Hypotenuse is 60

Adjacent is 45

Hypotenuse and adjacent - Cos

(Cos inverse to find the angle)

Cos(?) = a/h

Cos(?) = 45/60

Cos-(45/60) =?

? = 41.40962211

Hope this helps!

What's is the converse of the statement?If x is odd, then 2x is even.
dsp73
If you have two statements p and q and p\Rightarrow q is true, then  \neg q\Rightarrow \neg p is also true.

In your case, statements are p - "x is odd" and q -  "2x is even".

 Then \neg p - "x is not odd" and \neg q - "2x is not even."


Hence \neg q\Rightarrow \neg p sounds as: "If 2x is not even, then x is not odd".
Answer: correct choice is D.
