vovangra [49]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

(5 - a) = 20 + (6a -1) . . . . . 5-a is 20 greater than 6a-1

5 = 7a +19 . . . . . . . . . . . . . add a, collect terms

-14 = 7a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 19

-2 = a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

The value of the variable is -2.

_____

<u>Check</u>

5 - (-2) = 7

6(-2) -1 = -13

7 is 20 greater than -13, so the answer checks OK.

Before 8 A.M., there were 64 trucks and 24 cars in a parking lot. Between 8 A.M. and 9 A.M., more cars entered the parking lot a
malfutka [58]

Answer:

232 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of cars that entered is c.

At 9:00 am, there are a total of 24 + c cars and 64 trucks. We know that this value of 64 represents 1/5 of the total number of vehicles. The total number of vehicles is (24 + c) + 64 = 88 + c. So, we have:

64/(88 + c) = 1/5

Cross-multiply:

88 + c = 64 * 5 = 320

c = 320 - 88 = 232

Thus, the answer is 232 cars.

Note: as 232 doesn't show up in the answer choices, it's possible that the problem was copied correctly.

Help.... and thanks
Archy [21]

Answer:

π

Step-by-step explanation:

The *period* of a function is the length it takes before it repeats. Usually, the period of the sine function is 2π; it takes a full rotation around the unit circle for it to repeat. When we replace the input x with -2x, this does a few things:

- Changes the rotation direction

- Makes the rotation go twice as fast

If we rotate around the unit circle twice as fast, it’ll take us half of 2π, or just π to complete a cycle.
